24 hours with the MiniMed Paradigm™ Veo™ System

The MiniMed Paradigm™ Veo™ System has been designed to offer round-the-clock monitoring, advice, and support. Wherever you are – and whatever you are doing – it will be there to help manage your diabetes.

Here’s an example of how the Paradigm Veo System may help you 24 hours a day:

Time

Problem

Solution

4:30 am

Your glucose levels are falling to a low level when you are fast asleep.

The Low Glucose Suspend (LGS) mechanism halts insulin delivery for two hours as soon as your glucose levels fall below a pre-set limit. This helps to minimise the risk of severe hypoglycaemia.

9:15 am

Your glucose levels are rising rapidly after breakfast.

The Rate of Change Alert warns you to take immediate action to correct the situation.

1:25 pm

Your glucose levels begin to fall during a game of tennis with friends.

The Predictive Alert warns you 15 minutes before your low glucose limit has been reached, and you take preventative action.

6:45 pm

You have forgotten to take a bolus before an evening meal.

The Missed Meal Bolus Reminder alerts you to this potential oversight to reduce the risk of hyperglycaemia.

6:47 pm

You are now struggling to work out an accurate pre-meal bolus

The Medtronic Bolus Wizard™ calculator helps you out by suggesting an appropriate bolus amount based on all available information.

9:50 pm

You may be stacking too much insulin and could suffer a hypo.

The Active Insulin Onboard display shows how much insulin is still active and allows you to make appropriate adjustments.
