Extended bolus: A meal bolus delivered over an extended pe-

riod of time. The extended bolus can be used when you eat a

high fat or high protein meal, if you’re eating over an ex-

tended period of time (such as a banquet), or if you have

gastroparesis.

Factor: One of two or more values used in a mathematical

formula. The pump uses certain “factors” when making cal-

culations, for instance the correction bolus factor.

Fluid path: The areas inside the cartridge and infusion set that

come into direct contact with the insulin. These areas include

the inside of the tubing and connectors, the inside and tip of

the needle and cannula, and the inside and tip of the car-

tridge. To help protect against infection, never touch or blow

directly on any part of the fluid path.

Gastroparesis: A diabetes complication resulting in the slow-

ing of food digestion.

Gestational diabetes: A form of diabetes that develops in

women during pregnancy.

Glucose: The main source of fuel for the body. Foods contain-

ing carbohydrate are the main source of glucose in the body,

although foods containing protein also provide some glucose.

Foods containing fat also have an effect on blood glucose.

High blood glucose (hyperglycemia): Blood glucose level

higher than target. Signs and symptoms include: increased

thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision and high BG read-

ing upon testing.

Increment: An added (or subtracted) amount. On the pump,

you personalize how you want the pump to increment bolus

amounts (carbohydrate increments of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 or 15

grams; units of insulin by 0.05, 0.10, 0.50, or 1.00 units).

Then when you program a bolus, the pump counts up or

down using the increment you have chosen.

Infusion set: The tubing that is attached to the end of the

cartridge, through which the insulin is delivered into the body.

Insulin pump: A small electromechanical medical device de-

signed specifically for delivering precise amounts of insulin

into the body in the treatment of diabetes. The Deltec Cozmo

™

Insulin Pump systems are controlled by 2 microprocessors

(computer chips) which continuously monitor each other to

make sure the systems are working properly.

Insulin to carb ratio: The number of grams of carbohydrate

covered by each unit of insulin delivered. Your healthcare

provider will help you determine your insulin to carb ratio.

Ketones: A substance in the blood resulting in a change in the

acid base balance of the blood. Ketones can be tested in the

blood and urine.

Low blood glucose (hypoglycemia): Blood glucose level lower

than target. Signs and symptoms may include: shakiness,
