Basal rate
Basal insulin is required to maintain your target glucose
values when you are not eating. Your pump can be pro-
grammed with up to three (3) basal patterns (standard,
pattern A, pattern B) to accommodate your varying insulin
needs on different days (example: weekday versus week-
end day). Each pattern can have up to 48 basal rates. When
you first start pump therapy, you may only have to pro-
gram one or two basal rates. Get your basal rate settings
from your healthcare professional.
