Understanding and Delivering Bolus Doses

■ Cancel Active Boluses
The OmniPod System is extremely flexible, so you can use it to
respond to your changing insulin needs. It is easy to cancel an
active bolus (one that is currently being delivered), even after
insulin delivery has started.
1. To check the Pod status, refer to Page 54 for detailed instruc-
tions. The ID screen must be confirmed before you can check
Pod status. An on-screen message appears for as long as a
normal bolus is being delivered (Figure 4-11).
2. Press Cancel.
The Pod beeps to confirm the bolus is cancelled. An on-screen
message tells you how much insulin was delivered before
you cancelled the bolus (Figure 4-12).
3. Press OK to return to the Status screen.
■ Replace an Extended Bolus
You can replace one extended bolus with another. The System
tells you how much of the first bolus has not yet been delivered.
1. After you see your suggested bolus, press Extend instead of
Enter (see Figure 4-7 on Page 34).
Figure 4-11
Figure 4-12
If the bolus has already been completely delivered,
the “Delivering bolus” message and Cancel do not
appear, but the Status screen does appear.
If your suggested bolus contains both a correction
bolus and a meal bolus, the correction bolus is always
delivered first.
