2.5 Potential Benefits From
Using the Pump
•
The t:slim X2 Pump provides an
automated way to deliver basal
and bolus insulin. Delivery can
be fine-tuned based on up to 6
customizable Personal Profiles,
each with up to 16 time-based
settings for Basal Rate, Carb Ratio,
Correction Factor, and Target BG.
In addition, the Temp Rate feature
allows you to program a temporary
basal rate change for up to 72
hours.
•
The t:slim X2 Pump gives you the
option of delivering a bolus all at
once, or delivering a percentage
over an extended period of time
without navigating to different
menus. You can also program a
bolus more discreetly using the
Quick Bolus feature, which can
be used without looking at the
pump, and can be programmed in
increments of either units of insulin
or grams of carbohydrate.
•
From the bolus screen, the
“calculator within a calculator”
feature allows you to enter multiple
carbohydrate values and add
them together. The Pump’s bolus
calculator will recommend a bolus
based on the entire amount of
carbohydrates entered, which can
help eliminate guesswork.
•
The Pump keeps track of the
amount of active insulin from food
and correction boluses (IOB). When
programming additional food or
correction boluses, the pump will
subtract the amount of IOB from
the recommended bolus if your
BG is below the target set in your
active Personal Profile. This can
help prevent insulin stacking, which
can lead to hypoglycemia.
•
You can program a number of
reminders that will prompt you to
retest your BG after a low or high
BG is entered, as well as a “Missed
Meal Bolus Reminder” which will
alert you if a bolus isn’t entered
during a specified period of time.
If activated, these can help reduce
the likelihood that you will forget to
check your blood glucose or bolus
for meals.
•
You have the ability to view a
variety of data right on your screen,
including the time and amount
of your last bolus, your total
insulin delivery by day, as well as
broken into basal, food bolus, and
correction bolus.
