Suspend before low conditions
When a Suspend before low event occurs, all insulin delivery is suspended. A
Suspend before low event occurs in the following situations:
• Your SG value is at or within 70 mg/dL above your low limit.
• Your SG is predicted to reach or fall below a level that is 20 mg/dL above
your low limit within approximately 30 minutes.
Responding to a Suspend before low event
When you clear the Suspend before low alert, the SmartGuard suspend icon
flashes and "Suspended before low" appears on your Home screen. If your SG
reaches your low limit, an Alert on low occurs.
When a Suspend before low event occurs, insulin delivery will remain suspended
for at least 30 minutes. Insulin delivery will be suspended for a maximum of two
hours. You can manually resume insulin delivery at any time. For details, see
Manually resuming basal delivery during a SmartGuard suspend event, on page 198.
After the minimum 30-minute suspend time, basal insulin delivery will
automatically resume if the following conditions are met:
• Your SG is at least 20 mg/dL above your low limit.
• Your SG is estimated to be more than 40 mg/dL above your low limit within
30 minutes.
If you do not respond to the Suspend before low alert, your pump resumes insulin
delivery after two hours and displays a Basal delivery resumed alert.
When Suspend before low is unavailable
After a Suspend before low event occurs, there is a period of time when the
Suspend before low functionality is unavailable. This is to prevent prolonged
suspended basal delivery. The length of time it is unavailable will vary. You can
manually suspend insulin delivery at any time. For details, see Stopping and
resuming your insulin delivery, on page 78.
Note: The maximum amount of time the Suspend before low feature
will be unavailable is four hours.
