What do I do if I receive the Insulin flow blocked Check BG. Consider testing ketones. Check reservoir and infusion set alert on my pump?

Explanation:

The pump has detected that the basal or bolus insulin flow was blocked.

Next steps:

Check BG and ketones.

Administer an insulin injection if necessary.

  • Remove the infusion set and reservoir.
  • Select Rewind to start the process with a new infusion set and reservoir.

If the alarm occurs during a bolus delivery:

  • Check the Daily History screen for the amount of bolus already delivered before the pump alarmed.
  • Consider delivering remaining bolus, if the bolus insulin was not included in an insulin injection.

 

Warning:

Do not use the SmartGuard™ feature for a period of time, determined by a healthcare professional, after giving a manual injection of insulin by syringe or pen. Manual injections are not accounted for with the SmartGuard™ feature. Therefore, the SmartGuard™ feature could deliver too much insulin. Too much insulin may cause hypoglycaemia. Consult a healthcare professional for how long to wait after a manual injection of insulin before resuming the SmartGuard™ feature.
