The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The pump is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription. The bolus calculator is indicated for use for aiding the user in determining the bolus insulin dosage for management of diabetes mellitus based on consumed carbohydrates, operator-entered blood glucose, insulin sensitivity, insulin to carbohydrate ratio, target glucose values, and current insulin on board.
