9.2.2 RISE AND FALL GLUCOSE RATE ALERTS
Rate alerts tell you when your glucose levels are rising (rise alert) or
falling (fall alert) and by how much. You can choose for your receiver
to alert when your sensor glucose reading is rising or falling 2 mg/dL or
more per minute, or 3 mg/dL or more per minute.
Please select your alert settings in consultation with your
healthcare professional. The sensor glucose readings may differ
from your blood glucose measurement. If your sensor glucose
readings are changing slower than your blood glucose is actually
changing, sometimes your rise or fall glucose rate alerts may not
vibrate and/or beep when your blood glucose is actually rising or
falling. Selecting the 2 mg/dL level setting instead of the 3 mg/dL
level setting will reduce the missed alerts but may cause more
false alerts. It is important you discuss your alert settings with
your healthcare professional.
