4.5 Programming a Temporary
Basal Rate (TBR)
Your pump allows you to temporarily increase or decrease your
basal rates. This enables you to match your changing insulin
needs due to increased or decreased activity level, illness, or
stress.
Typically, a basal rate is set to 100 %, but you can:
j Increase it to 250 % for up to 24 hours
j Decrease it to 0 % for up to 24 hours
When you increase or decrease your basal rate, each hourly
basal rate for the duration you program is increased or de-
creased automatically. The characteristic shape of your basal
rate prole remains and does not become a at curve, if the
change is larger than 0 %. For 0 % the basal rate prole becomes
a at line and no insulin (except boluses) is delivered during the
programmed duration.
Discuss programming a Temporary Basal Rate with your doctor
or healthcare team.
