Temp (temporary) basal rates

Temp basal should be used based on the guidance of your healthcare professional. The temp

(temporary) basal rate feature is useful to manage blood glucose levels during unusual short-term

activities or conditions. These conditions could be an illness or physical activity.

A temporary basal rate allows an immediate short-term change to your basal insulin for a specified

period of time (30 minutes to 24-hours). This rate can be up to your maximum basal rate setting. It

offers an easy way to immediately meet short-term insulin needs for temporary activities or situations.

When your blood glucose is temporarily high or low, a temp basal rate allows you to set a temporarily

higher or lower basal to accommodate your blood glucose.

NOTE - Temp Basal is useful for a temporary condition or period of increased or decreased activity

(i.e. a cold or physical activity) that is not usually part of your lifestyle. For ongoing periods of

increased or decreased activity, the patterns feature may be more suitable.

How does temp basal work?

During a temp basal delivery, all other basal programming is temporarily overridden. After the temp

basal delivery is completed, your pump will return to the programmed basal. A temp basal is delivered

only once and does not repeat. If you want another temp basal, you must program the temp basal

again. This feature may be useful to temporarily increase or decrease basal insulin during illness,

exercise or the similar situations.
