select an item and to move forward to the next screen. You can also stop a normal bolus in progress.
Extended Bolus
• – A bolus delivered over a determined period of time that is sometimes used to better match a
food that is absorbed slowly.
Food Bolus
• – A bolus calculator option that allows administration of a bolus to account for food about to be
eaten.
Food and Correction Bolus
• – A Bolus Calculator option that allows administration of a bolus to correct blood
glucose levels that are higher than the desired blood glucose level and takes into account food about to be
eaten.
Highlight –
• Setting the Cursor to highlight gives the text a highlighted display as you scroll and select options.
Home Screen:
•
The • Information-based home screen provides details about current basal and bolus status, including the
time and amount of your last bolus and whether basal delivery is running or stopped. When basal delivery is
running, the name of the active basal prole and delivery rate is displayed.
The
• Activity-based home screen provides direct access to the pump options. Information about the basal
and last bolus status is accessible through the STATUS option.
Home Screen Appearance -
• The Information-based home screen provides details about current basal and bo-
lus status, including the time and amount of your last bolus, and whether basal delivery is running or stopped.
When basal delivery is running, the name of the active basal prole and delivery rate is displayed.
Hyperglycemia
• – Blood glucose levels that are higher than target level.
Hypoglycemia
• – Blood glucose levels that are lower than target level.
I:CHO
• (or Carb Ratio) – Insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio that denes how many grams of carbohydrates 1 unit of
insulin covers. CHO is an abbreviation for carbohydrate. This number is programmed into the pump for use by
the bolus calculator. When you program in your number of carbohydrates you are about to eat, the bolus calcu-
lator helps you decide how much insulin may be needed for that food. It does NOT take into account food other
than carbohydrates.
Inactivity Alarm –
• A safety alarm that sound when you have NOT touched any buttons within the time period
selected. If you do NOT respond to an inactivity alert within 15 minutes, the INACTIVITY ALARM will sound and
basal insulin delivery is stopped.
Inactivity Alert –
• When the inactivity time has elapsed without any interaction on the pump, the pump rst
displays the INACTIVITY ALERT screen to keep delivery going.
Indication
• – A description of what the pump should be used for.
Information Display
• – Home screen conguration that provides important status information concerning basal
and bolus delivery. Also oers short cuts to get to lower level menus.
Infusion Set
• – The combination of the reservoir cap, tubing, and cannula that delivers insulin from the pump’s
reservoir into the body. It is used one time only, and is discarded after each use.
Glossary Glossary
Infusion Set Tubing
• – Part of the infusion set that carries insulin from the pump to the cannula.
Insulin
• – A hormone that helps the body use glucose for energy. When the body cannot make enough insulin, it
is taken in by injection or through use of a pump.
Insulin On Board (IOB)
• – The amount of insulin units that remain active in your body. The IOB is calculated us-
ing the insulin action time setting chosen in your insulin prole (see Section 2.1), along with looking at ear-
lier boluses delivered. In addition, if a correction dose has recently been given, (for information on correction
boluses, refer to Section 8.4.) the IOB feature may help you prevent giving too much insulin to correct your high
glucose.
Insulin Reservoir
• – The reservoir holds the insulin that the pump will deliver to your body. The reservoir holds
250 units of insulin. Your healthcare professional will tell you how much insulin to use to ll the reservoir. The
reservoir is a single-use only item.
Insulin Reservoir Vial Adapter
• – Attaches to the top of the insulin vial and is used in place of a lling needle to
transfer liquid into the insulin reservoir.
Insulin Temp
• – An alert that lets you know if the temperature of the pump is too hot or too cold.
Introducer Needle
• – The needle that guides the insertion of the cannula in your body. The needle is removed
and only the cannula is left in your body.
IOB Panel –
• Provides an indication of the amount of insulin that is still active in your body from past boluses.
Jogwheel/Enter Button (companion) -
• The top jogwheel button on the right side of the companion. It scrolls
to allow you to move up and down through the companion. You can also use this button to select an item and
to move forward to the next screen. You can also stop a normal bolus in progress.
Levels Panel
• – Displays the battery and insulin reservoir levels by icons.
Locked Item Setting
• – Setting that allows change of whether Bolus and Basal Menu options are locked (inac-
cessible) or unlocked (accessible). This is a safety feature to prevent unwanted changes in insulin, by a child for
example.
Low Insulin Alert
• – An alert, based on programmed settings telling when insulin is getting low.
Low Power
• Sleep State – This means the display is blank when the display timed out or when the user deliber-
ately puts the pump to sleep by pressing and holding the back button on the Home screen.
Magnify
• – Turning the Magnify option to On makes the text larger and easier to view on the screen.
Main Menu
• – Lists the options to start/stop basal, go to bolus menu, basal menu, Alarm Setup, bolus status,
prime menu, reports menu, and setup menu.
Manual Bolus
• – A bolus that is delivered without using the bolus calculator.
Modify Program
• – Allows edit, create, rename, or delete basal programs.
Normal Bolus
• – A one time quick dose of insulin that is programmed when you eat or need a dose of insulin to
be delivered immediately.
Occlusion Alarm
• – Alarm that alerts you to an obstruction of uid. The alarm occurs when pressure is detected
