Bolus
There are three bolus types: Normal, Square Wave
®
, and Dual Wave
®
. This section gives instructions
for a Normal bolus using the express bolus button and navigating through the menus. (For information
about Square Wave and Dual Wave boluses, refer to chapter 6, “Optimizing pump therapy.”)
The Normal bolus delivers an immediate food or correction bolus. It can be delivered at any time
except during another Normal bolus. During a Normal bolus, most pump features are disabled until after
all the bolus has been delivered. The suspend function and the STATUS screen, however, are always
available.
Normal bolus
For this type of insulin delivery, all of the bolus insulin is given all at once (all of the insulin in the
dose is given at one time). Normal bolus deliveries can be used to cover an expected rise in your blood
glucose caused by eating a meal or snack, or to correct an unexpected rise in blood glucose.
During a Normal bolus, most pump features are disabled until after all the bolus insulin has been
delivered. The Suspend function and the STATUS screen, however, are always available.
The following instructions are for a Normal bolus when the Bolus Wizard feature is turned off.
