Glossary Glossary
Target BG : The blood glucose level that the Bolus Calculator tries to achieve.
You can define different Target BGs for different time periods. For example, you
can have one Target BG before meals, a different one after meals and yet another
at night.
Temp basal : A temporary basal rate that is used to cover predictable, short-term
changes in basal insulin need. Temp basals are often used during exercise and for
sick-day insulin adjustments.
Temp basal preset : An adjustment in a basal rate, in either % or U/hr, that can be
assigned a custom name and stored by the PDM for later use.
Time segment (see segment
)
Unconfirmed bolus
: Occurs when you select the
DISCARD POD
option
following a communication error during a bolus. In this case, the Pod was unable to
send a confirmation to the PDM about how much of a bolus was actually delivered.
Wireless communication
: Transfer of information without a physical connection
between two devices. The PDM and Pod communicate over short distances using
radio waves, which is referred to as wireless communication.
