SmartGuard Technology
SmartGuard technology automatically adjusts insulin delivery based on your SG
values. SmartGuard technology can be used in two modes: Manual Mode and
Auto Mode. This chapter describes SmartGuard technology used in Manual Mode
with the SmartGuard suspend (Suspend before low and Suspend on low) features.
SmartGuard suspend features can automatically stop and resume insulin delivery
based on your SG values and low limit. When your pump suspends insulin delivery
based on your SG values and your low limit, it is called a SmartGuard suspend
event. Your low limit should be set based on recommendations from your
healthcare professional. When a SmartGuard suspend event occurs, basal insulin
delivery automatically resumes if your SG values are rising and have met the
specified criteria, or if the maximum suspend time of two hours is reached.
Auto Mode is also part of SmartGuard technology. When your pump is in Auto
Mode, your basal insulin delivery is automatically controlled. For details, see About
SmartGuard Auto Mode, on page 219.
The following table lists SmartGuard features and where to find them.
