Understanding and Adjusting Basal Rates

change. To easily handle predictable, short-term changes, you
can “preset” a temporary basal rate, so it is ready whenever you
need it. The PDM can remember up to 7 temporary basal presets.
You can set a temporary basal rate for a duration of 30 minutes to
12 hours. Once the time limit is reached, the System automati-
cally returns to the active basal program.
When using units per hour, the mylife OmniPod System allows
you to set temporary basal rates from 0.0 U/hr, up to your max
basal rate. When using percent rate, you can set temporary basal
rates from “Off” to +95% of your active rate, as long as the tem-
porary rate is less than or equal to your max basal rate.
Another
limit on
the temp basal rate when configured in % is that the rate
cannot be decreased such that the resultant flow rate will be less
than 0.05 U/hr. Example – if flow rate is 0.10 U/hr, you can’t create
a temp basal of -60%.
See the sections below on creating, enabling, cancelling, and
changing temporary basal presets.
Enable a one-time temporary basal rate
1. On the Home screen, use the Up/Down Controller buttons
to choose Temp basal , then press Select .
2. If you have created temp basal presets, choose [enter manu-
ally] from the list, then press Select .
If you have not created any temp basal presets, the PDM skips
this step.
3. Enter the temporary basal rate in either units per hour (Figure
3-11) or percent change (Figure 3-12), depending on how
you choose to show the rates, then press
Enter .
4. Enter the duration for the temporary rate, then press Enter .
5. Press Confirm to start the temporary basal rate shown on the
screen. The Pod beeps to indicate that the temporary basal
rate is running.
During initial setup, you and your healthcare provider
either turned
Off temporary basal rates, or chose to
show the rates as % or U/hr . To change this setting, see
Chapter 6, Using the Personal Diabetes Manager.
