Overview
Extended Bolus
An Extended Bolus is delivered over a period of time. It is intended for times when
you have a high-fat meal or a meal spread out over a long period of time.
Grams
Grams are a unit of measurement used to measure carbohydrates.
Insulin Duration
Insulin duration is the amount of time that insulin is active and available in the body
after a bolus has been delivered. This also relates to the calculation for insulin on
board (IOB).
Insulin on Board (IOB)
IOB is the insulin that is still active (has the ability to continue to lower the BG) in the
body after a bolus has been delivered.
Load
Load refers to the process of removing, replacing, and filling a new cartridge and
infusion set.
Personal Profile
A Personal Profile is a personalized group of settings that defines the delivery of
basal and bolus insulin within specific time segments throughout a 24-hour period.
Quick Bolus
A Quick Bolus is a way to deliver a bolus (using the Quick Bolus button) by follow-
ing beep/vibration commands without navigating through or viewing the t:slim X2
insulin pump screen.
Temporary Basal Rate (Temp Rate)
Temp Rate is used to increase or decrease the current basal rate for a short period
of time to accommodate special situations, such as exercise or illness. The pro-
grammed basal rate is represented as 100%, with percentages greater or less than
100% representing how much more or less insulin is delivered compared with the
basal rate. A 120% temp rate, for example, represents 20% more insulin than the
regular basal rate.
Unit
A unit is the increment of measurement for insulin.
USB Cable
USB is the abbreviation for universal serial bus. The cable connects into the micro
USB port on the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology.
