Systems like the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology and the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology are not substitutes for active diabetes management. For example, users still must bolus for meals. Basal-IQ technology is designed to predict and help prevent lows, but it cannot prevent all lows and Basal-IQ technology does not predict high glucose events. Control-IQ technology is designed to predict and help prevent low and high glucose events, but it cannot prevent all highs and lows, and Control-IQ requires that users accurately input information, such as meals and periods of sleep or exercise. The Basal-IQ and Control-IQ features rely on continuous CGM readings and will not be able to predict glucose levels and adjust insulin dosing if your CGM is not working properly or is unable to communicate with your pump. Be sure to always use your pump, cartridges, CGM, and infusion sets as instructed and check them regularly to make sure they are working properly. Always pay attention to your symptoms, actively monitor your glucose levels, and treat according to your healthcare provider’s
recommendations.
