Glossary of Terms
The following is a list of terms that you should know before
reading this manual, because the manual uses these terms of-
ten:
Access site: The area on the body into which the cannula or
needle of the infusion set is inserted.
Aseptic technique: Aseptic technique is used to minimize the
risk of infection. Use aseptic technique when working with
the cartridge, infusion set, cannula/needle and preparing the
access site. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and wa-
ter. Do not touch or blow directly on any part that comes in
contact with insulin (the “fluid path”). Make sure the area
(counter or tabletop, etc.) where you are working is clean.
BG level: See Blood Glucose Level.
Basal Pattern: A 24 hour sequence of basal rates.
Basal rate: The amount of insulin delivered continuously over
24 hours a day, providing a background of insulin at all times.
The user programs the basal rate to deliver insulin continu-
ously. The rate programmed is intended to keep the blood
glucose within the user’s target range between meals and over-
night. The basal rate is measured in units per hour (u/hr).
Blood Glucose level (BG level): The amount of glucose in
the blood. BG levels average 100 mg/dl (5.5 mmol/L) for some-
one without diabetes. Your healthcare provider will help you
of 8 feet (2.4 meters) for 30 minutes or 12 feet (3.6 meters) for
3 minutes.
Pump and delivery history is automatically tracked by the pump,
and can be viewed in the History menu (see page 99 in chap-
ter 6 of this manual for a list of available history).
The pump has a Program Lock feature which allows you to
lock out the menu. This feature helps prevent tampering with
the pump.
The pump requires the use of the Deltec Cozmo
™
3mL Insulin
Cartridge and one of the Deltec Insulin Infusion Sets.
