Square wave bolus
The square wave bolus can be used for insulin delivery when you have eaten a long meal, with extended snacking, or if you have delayed digestion of food. By extending the bolus delivery over a period of time, the insulin is more likely to be available to match your individual needs.
➤What can I do if I want to eat more food than the square wave bolus I have programmed will cover?
If you need additional insulin, the Paradigm pump will let you pro- gram a normal bolus during a square wave delivery. The normal bolus will interrupt the square wave that is being delivered. The square wave delivery will continue once the normal bolus delivery is finished.
The square and dual wave boluses are optional. You may want to explore these options after you become familiar with the basic functions of your pump. It is important that you consult with your healthcare professional before using these features.
