CHAPTER 8
Record Keeping
■ Record Keeping
Record keeping is an important part of successful diabetes man-
agement. The Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) helps simplify
this task. It automatically stores records of insulin-delivery his-
tory, blood glucose readings, alarms, and carbohydrates.
Special symbols in history record screens
In the history record screens, you may encounter several special
symbols:
If the PDM batteries run out, data in the memory is at
risk. Do NOT remove the old batteries until you have
new ones at hand. The longer the batteries are
removed, the more the memory is at risk.
The record for this item has been “lost.”
If the PDM can no longer communicate with an
active pod, then you must activate a new pod. The
PDM may not be able to communicate with the
active pod because of signal interference or because
you have discarded the pod. If you change the pod
without getting a Status update, any “unconfirmed”
records will be “lost.” If this occurs, the PDM will not
display insulin totals for any day containing “lost”
records.
✔ The record for this item is “unconfirmed.”
When you power on the PDM, it will request a status
update from the active pod and then update the
insulin history. If the PDM does not receive a status
update from the pod, the PDM will update history
with “unconfirmed” records. The next time the PDM
receives a status update, it will update these records.
This insulin delivery item spans midnight. The date given
is the start date.
