SmartGuard^TM bolus

Device: MiniMed^TM 780G insulin pump

Pump software version: 6.21, 6.42, and 6.61 (Find software version)

When in SmartGuard^TM technology, a current blood glucose (BG) or sensor glucose (SG) reading is used to determine the bolus amount. A carb amount can also be entered for a food bolus. The SmartGuard^TM bolus feature then calculates the bolus amount needed to cover the meal, the correction, or both.

If the BG or SG is under 120 mg/dL, or if the bolus recommended is zero after the pump accounts for active insulin, or if the SmartGuard^TM feature estimates that the current basal insulin delivery is enough, no correction is recommended.

Please note: A paired Accu-chek^® Guide Link meter sends BG readings directly to the pump. If an Accu-chek^® Guide Link meter is not used to check a BG, the BG value must be manually entered in the SmartGuard^TM bolus screen.

To deliver a bolus with the SmartGuard™ feature:

1. From the Home screen, press and select .
2. Select Bolus.
3. Enter your Carb amount, in grams. The screen indicates the amount of the calculated bolus.

4. Select Deliver Bolus.
   A screen appears briefly to indicate the bolus delivery has started. Then, the Home screen* appears and shows the progress of the bolus delivery.

Here's a tip: You can also access the Bolus screen by pressing the down arrow from the Home screen.
