Smartphone Bolus Feature Increases Number of Insulin Boluses in People With Low Bolus Frequency
Authors' conclusion
This analysis found a significant increase in bolusing behavior among early adopters of the smartphone bolus feature of the t:connect mobile app.

- US t:slim X2 insulin pump users who remotely updated pump software for smartphone bolus and gave <3 boluses/day before the update (early adopters)
- Participants
- 4,470 early adopters
- Exposure
- Bolus frequency after vs before smartphone bolus update
- Outcome
- Number of boluses per day
