Inspect your infusion site at least once or twice each day for
irritation or infection. Signs of infection may include, but
are not limited to, pain, lumps, redness, heat, or discharge.
If you see redness or swelling, change your infusion headset
and infusion site immediately and contact your doctor or
healthcare team.
Change your infusion headset according to the instructions
for the infusion set you are using and your doctor or
healthcare team’s recommendations.
Note:
If you use a soft cannula-type infusion set, you must proceed with a bolus
to fill the air space in the cannula after removing the introducer needle
according to the instructions for the infusion set you are using. Failure to
do so could result in missed insulin dosing. See the section “Programming
a Standard Bolus” (page 77) for more information.
