Initial pump settings
This is the information you need on the day that you begin using your pump with insulin.
If your pump start is to take place in your healthcare professional’s office, you will be given the settings that day.
If your pump start is going to take place in another location, make sure to contact your healthcare professional to determine your basal rate and bolus amounts. This may require making an appointment to review your blood glucose logs in order for your healthcare professional to make an accurate determination.
Enter your settings in the tables on the next page and onto the Quick Reference Card provided. This card is designed to fit into your wallet or pocket, so it is always with you.
