A bolus represents the required insulin amount to be delivered in
addition to the basal rate to cover the intake of food or correct an
elevated blood glucose level. The bolus type and bolus amount
are determined by your healthcare professional’s guidelines, your
blood glucose level, your eating behaviour, your state of health as
well as the type and duration of physical activity.
A prerequisite for insulin therapy is that you are able to
understand and apply the basic principles of bolus calculation
according to the specifications of your healthcare professional.
6.1 Manual Bolus Delivery
You can deliver a bolus manually or by means of the bolus advice
feature. This chapter explains manual bolus delivery with
different bolus types. Moreover, it describes the options to cancel
bolus delivery.

Delivering a Bolus
Note
When you test your blood glucose and deliver a bolus, keep in
mind that if there is an occlusion, up to 5 U may accumulate
before an occlusion message (M-24) is issued. If the
occlusion suddenly dissolves, the bolus and the insulin that
accumulated due to the occlusion will be delivered. This can
lead to hypoglycaemia.
