Introduction xix
Introduction
Thank you for choosing Medtronic MiniMed as your partner in helping you gain better control of your diabetes.
Whether you are beginning pump therapy for the first time or upgrading from a previous model, we believe that the
combination of state-of-the-art technology and the simple, menu-driven programming of the pump will provide
many benefits.
Purpose
This user guide is designed to help you to understand pump therapy and the operation of your pump. We strongly
recommend that you work closely with your healthcare professional for a safe and complete pump start.
Your pump is for insulin therapy to help you maintain a stable blood glucose target throughout the day. Based on
your settings, the pump delivers your custom basal automatically and continuously 24-hours a day. It also provides
bolus deliveries to support your immediate insulin needs for food intake and/or high blood glucose. The Bolus
Wizard feature can calculate your bolus amount for you based on your personal settings.
