SmartGuard Suspend on low
The SmartGuard Suspend on low feature stops insulin delivery when your SG value
reaches or falls below the low limit that you set. When a Suspend on low event
occurs, all insulin delivery is suspended. This feature is used for situations when
you cannot respond to a low glucose condition. It is intended to suspend insulin
delivery and minimize the amount of time spent with low BG values.
WARNING: Do not use the Suspend on low feature until you have
read the information in this user guide and received training from
your healthcare professional. The Suspend on low feature causes
the pump to temporarily suspend insulin delivery for a maximum of
two hours. Under some conditions of use, the pump can suspend
again, resulting in limited insulin delivery. Prolonged suspension
can increase the risk of serious hyperglycemia, ketosis, and
ketoacidosis.
The default setting for the Suspend on low feature is off. Consult your healthcare
professional for the Suspend on low setting that is best for you.
If you turn on Suspend on low, then Alert on low is turned on automatically. For
more information, see Alert on low, on page 185.
