Your New mylife OmniPod Insulin Management System

Automated cannula insertion
With the mylife OmniPod System, you don’t have to insert the
infusion set
manually or carry around a separate inserter. You sim-
ply press a button on the PDM and the Pod’s automated
insertion system safely and consistently inserts the cannula
beneath the skin, virtually pain free. It then begins delivering
insulin according to your programmed basal rate.
A fully-integrated design with blood glucose monitoring
With a fully integrated two-part design, there’s no need to carry
separate infusion sets, reservoirs, or inserters. It’s all integrated
into the Pod. With the PDM, you can check your blood glucose
level using FreeStyle® blood glucose test strips, but without the
hassle of carrying a separate blood glucose meter.
If you prefer to use another blood glucose meter, you can enter
the readings manually into the PDM.
Record keeping
Another convenient part of the mylife OmniPod System is record
keeping. Paper charts are useful, but sometimes they can be
inconvenient to carry or use. The data storage system in the
Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) displays up to 90 days’ worth
of information. This includes blood glucose readings, basal rates
and bolus doses, carbohydrates, and alarms.
Personalizing your System
You can personalize your mylife OmniPod System in other ways,
too:
•
Enter and name basal programs
•
Name and save temporary basal presets
•
Add your own customized reminders
•
Enter your name, phone number, doctor’s name and
number, and other emergency information
