3 Omnipod 5 System Overview
Bolus information and button
e lower le section of the Home screen displays
bolus information. e Bolus icon is at the bottom.
Between boluses
When a bolus is not being delivered, the section is
labeled LAST BOLUS and shows the amount and time
of the most recent bolus.
During a bolus
When a bolus is being delivered , the last bolus
information is replaced by an estimate of the insulin on
board (IOB):
• During an immediate bolus, the IOB estimate is
updated every second.
• During an extended bolus, the IOB estimate is updated based on:
• Previous boluses
• Amount of insulin already delivered from the ongoing bolus
• Amount of insulin projected to be delivered within the time period
dened by your Duration of Insulin Action setting
Bolus information if there is no Pod communication
If the Pod is out of range of the Omnipod 5 app and cannot conrm the recent
bolus amount, an estimated bolus amount is shown. Once the Pod is in range
again and the bolus delivery is conrmed, the conrmed bolus amount is shown.
Estimated and unconrmed bolus amounts
e Omnipod 5 app estimates bolus amounts during an ongoing bolus and when
the Pod is out of range. A gray icon (
) marks estimated bolus amounts. A
yellow icon ( ) marks unconrmed bolus amounts (see "When the Pod has not
conrmed a bolus delivery" on page 177).
