CHAPTER 1
Your Omnipod® Insulin
Management System
Welcome
The Omnipod® Insulin Management System is an innovative continuous insulin
delivery system that provides all the proven benefits of continuous subcutaneous
insulin infusion (CSII) therapy. Features of the Omnipod® Insulin Management
System include:
No tubing
: There is no tubing connecting the Pod to the Personal Diabetes
manager (PDM). You can wear the Pod under your clothes and carry the PDM
separately. You can swim wearing the Pod and leave the PDM on dry land. The
Pod is waterproof to 7.6 meters (25 feet) for up to 60 minutes (IP28).
Bolus Calculator: If your blood glucose is high or if you plan to eat, the PDM's
Bolus Calculator can suggest a bolus dose based on your individual settings.
Built-in blood glucose meter
: The PDM contains a built-in blood glucose meter.
You can also use a separate blood glucose meter and enter the results manually
into the PDM.
Record keeping
: The data storage system in the PDM displays up to 90 days of
information. This includes blood glucose results, basal rates and bolus doses,
carbohydrates, and alarms.
The
Getting Started section of this book explains the basic operation and setup of
the Omnipod® System. The User Guide section gives step-by-step instructions for
using the System. The Reference section explains the System in detail.
