Term
Definition
Acting time
The acting time is the period of time from the start of bolus delivery until the blood glucose level is
expected to return to the target value.
Active insulin
A calculated value representing the amount of insulin currently in the body that still has a lowering
effect on the blood glucose level after a correction bolus. This value does not include any insulin
amounts that were delivered to compensate for carbohydrate intake.
Automatic off
The automatic off function is a feature for emergency situations. If you have not touched any buttons
on your micropump and not operated the diabetes manager for the specified number of hours, the
micropump stops insulin delivery.
Basal rate
The basal rate is the insulin amount delivered per hour to cover your meal-independent insulin
needs. In insulin pump therapy, your basal rate is determined together with your healthcare
professional and can be adjusted to meet your individual physiological needs that can change as the
day progresses.
Basal rate profile
A basal rate profile consists of up to 24 time blocks. An individual basal rate can be programmed for
each time block. The Accu-Chek Solo micropump offers you up to 5 different basal rate profiles in
order to easily adjust insulin delivery to meet your changing insulin needs (for example, during the
week compared to at the weekend).
BG threshold
A limit value that triggers a test reminder when the blood glucose level is above or below this value.
The BG thresholds do not affect the target ranges or the warning limits.
