4.3 Programming an Extended Bolus
The Extended Bolus option enables you to program a bolus to be
delivered over a period of time. This function is helpful during
long meals, dinners, or receptions, or when you have meals that
are digested slowly. The Extended Bolus may also be appropriate
for people who have gastroparesis (delayed digestion).
The duration of bolus delivery can be programmed in 15-minute
intervals up to 12 hours and begins immediately after
confirmation. Throughout the bolus delivery, the remaining time
and amount of the Extended Bolus and the current hourly basal
rate are displayed in the RUN screen.
Cancellation during the start delay and during the bolus delivery
will cause a WARNING W8: BOLUS CANCELLED. Press f twice
to confirm and snooze the warning. See chapter 8 Warnings and
errors.
Note Make sure that the cancellation was deliberate and
program a new bolus, if needed.
