8 Set, Review, or Change the Alarm Settings
Purpose
To set the receiver to:
• Alert you when your glucose conditions change.
• Notify you when the receiver needs attention.
• Notify you when the receiver begins or completes certain activities.
Start
Do this task:
• Immediately after you finish the first set up of your FreeStyle Navigator system.
• When your healthcare team gives you new glucose threshold numbers.
• Anytime you get a “Preferences Lost Reconfigure” alarm message on the receiver.
• Anytime you replace your receiver.
• Anytime you want to change your alarm settings.
• Anytime you want to review your alarm settings.
Materials
• Your FreeStyle Navigator Receiver.
• Low and high glucose threshold values (from your healthcare team).
Helpful Information
•
High and low glucose alarms
let you know when your glucose levels are above or below your low and
high glucose
threshold
values. You will decide the low and high glucose threshold values based on
input from your healthcare team. If there is no glucose data, you will not get glucose alarms.
• A
projected alarm
is an alarm that provides an
early warning
of an event that is likely to occur if the
current trend continues. Projected alarms use the low and high glucose threshold values regardless of
whether or not the low and high glucose alarms are turned on.
For example, a projected low alarm lets you know when you are approaching your low glucose threshold
value. You will decide the amount of notice required (whether you should be notified approximately 10
minutes, 20 minutes or 30 minutes in advance of reaching your threshold value) based on the input from
your healthcare team.
• A data loss alarm warns you when glucose results are no longer available. They occur when the sensor
has expired, when the transmitter-receiver connection is broken, when a calibration has expired or
when the sensor is not working properly. The data loss alarm cannot be turned off without turning off
the glucose alarms (Low Glucose, High Glucose, Projected Low Glucose and Projected High Glucose).
•
System alarms
notify you of events like low battery or time to calibrate.
•
Progress tones
notify you of errors, results, and successful completion of steps in activities like Blood
Glucose mode testing.
Caution:
The high and low alarms are intended to assist you in managing your diabetes and should
not be exclusively used to detect hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The alarms should always be used in
conjunction with other indications of glycemic state such as your glucose level, trend, line graph etc.
Caution: High and low glucose alarms are DIFFERENT from your glucose targets. Low and high glucose
alarms alert you when you’ve crossed a certain low or high value. Glucose targets allow the reports and
line graphs to show how your glucose levels have been performing compared to your set targets.
Caution: Before adjusting treatment for diabetes management based on the continuous glucose results
from your FreeStyle Navigator system, perform a Blood Glucose mode test to confirm the continuous
result.
