Check your Dexcom G6 app to see if there are any Sensor actions you need to take
to re-establish communication. See your Dexcom G6 CGM System Instructions
for Use.
Note: Automated: Limited state can occur due to a loss of communication
between the Sensor and Pod. It is possible that your Dexcom G6 app is still
receiving sensor glucose values. Open your Dexcom G6 app to check.
21.6. Automated Delivery Restriction
ere may be times when the System has been working to bring your glucose into
range but has not seen your glucose change the way it expected. In this case, it will
switch to Automated: Limited state.
During these times, you’ll see an orange bar on your Sensor Graph for “Insulin
max reached” or a red bar for “Insulin paused”. e System will show an Advisory
Alarm that says “Automated Delivery Restriction”.
For more information about this alarm, see “
Automated Delivery Restriction”
on page 282.
Low Glucose
If your glucose has been trending low, SmartAdjust technology may have paused
insulin.
If there has been little to no impact to your sensor glucose value from pausing,
the System assumes there may be a problem you need to troubleshoot. Pausing
insulin for too long could put you at risk of hyperglycaemia.
e Automated Delivery Restriction can let you know that you need to step in and
check the following:
• Is your Sensor reporting your glucose accurately? Check your BG with a BG
meter to conrm.
• Has your glucose been low despite treatment? Consider eating additional
fast-acting carbs.
High Glucose
If your glucose has been trending high, SmartAdjust technology may have
delivered the maximum amount of insulin microboluses allowed by the System.
Note: is maximum amount is dierent than your Max Basal setting in Manual
Mode. Adjusting your Max Basal setting in Manual Mode will not impact the
amount that SmartAdjust technology can deliver in Automated Mode. is
insulin max value is unique to each person and based on your recent total daily
insulin use. It may change over time as your System continually adapts with each
Pod change. You cannot directly impact this setting.
