In a world first and taking diabetes management to a new level, the Paradigm™ Veo™ insulin pump with Continuous Glucose Monitoring is equipped with a Low Glucose Suspend (LGS) mechanism, which will halt insulin delivery automatically whenever your glucose levels reach a pre-set low.* This may help to reduce the risk of severe hypoglycaemia.^1,2,3,4 And being a REAL-Time insulin pump, the Paradigm™ Veo™ system can offer you the advanced insight of Continuous Glucose Monitoring as well. Giving you and your Healthcare Professional information needed to make therapy adjustments:

• Monitoring and recording your glucose levels 24/7
• Allowing you to identify trends and make appropriate adjustments to your lifestyle/treatment**
• Warning you when your glucose levels stray from your target range

While research shows that CGM helps manage diabetes better⁵, we understand that not everybody is ready to monitor their glucose levels in this way. You may, for example, choose to continue with your existing fingerstick routine only. That’s why we refer to the Paradigm™ Veo™  insulin pump as “CGM-Ready”, which means you can switch CGM functionality on or off at any time – depending on your preferences and requirements. With the CGM function off, you will keep on enjoying the benefits of the Paradigm™ Veo™ as an insulin pump in its own right.

• Smart - Medtronic Bolus Wizard™ Calculator - does the calculations for you and suggests bolus amounts
• Individual - 5 colour options and a range of SKINS allow you to personalise your pump
• Freedom - You have the freedom to set your own routine so you can eat, sleep and exercise whenever you like.
• Easy to use - Simple, intuitive navigation and on-screen instructions
• Helpful - Missed meal bolus reminder – may help avoid hyperglycaemia by warning you when a meal bolus may have been missed.
• Discreet - No bigger than a mobile phone, and will attach to a belt or fit in a pocket

We understand how difficult choosing an insulin pump can be. That’s why key features and benefits are listed in a table below. The Paradigm™ Veo™ Insulin pump has a number of innovative features that may help you to manage your diabetes more easily.

Ease of Use What is it? How does it work? How can it help me? Bolus Wizard™ calculator Recommends a bolus dose based on your personal settings, food intake, and the amount of active insulin in your body. Includes carbohydrate ratios, insulin sensitivities, and blood glucose targets Eliminates the guesswork and complicated diabetes calculations to make dosing easier and more accurate User friendly display Large screen fonts and onscreen icons with a backlit display Easy to read and use, even at night Intuitive navigation Menus are modified automatically to speed up navigation to important screens You don't need to press as many buttons Simple instructions Improved menus for reservoir and infusion set changes Quicker and easier for you to change your infusion sets Flexibility What is it? How does it work? How can it help me? Minimum basal rate of 0.025 units per hour Set basal rates as low as 0.025 units per hour and adjust dosage by increments as small as 0.025 units per hour This may help if you only need very low amounts of basal insulin (e.g. very young children or insulin sensitive users) Maximum basal rate of 35 units per hour Set basal rates to up to 35 units per hour This may help if you have high insulin demands or you are insulin resistant Maximum bolus of 75 units Delivers up to 75 units in a single bolus This may help if you have high insulin demands or you are insulin resistant Choice of reservoir sizes Model 554: 176 units Model 754: 176 or 300 units The larger reservoir is for people who require more than 50 units of insulin per day; smaller reservoir makes the insulin pump even more discreet and lightweight 3 bolus delivery options Normal, Square Wave™, Dual Wave™ More closely matches your insulin delivery to the food you eat Basal rates and patterns 3 patterns, 48 rates each Set the pattern and rate to match your day’s activities Basal rate range 0.025 to 35 units per hour Precise insulin dosing to meet your specific needs Temporary basal rate Increase or decrease by % or set the insulin pump at any rate for 30 minutes, up to 24 hours Adjust insulin easily in response to stress, illness or changes in your activity levels Glucose Management What is it? How does it work? How can it help me? Active Insulin Onboard Informs you of active insulin on several screens where bolusing may occur May help prevent stacking of insulin which may cause hypos – particularly useful if you tend to overcorrect Missed Meal Bolus Reminder Warns you when a meal bolus may have been missed May help to avoid hyperglycaemia Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)* What is it? How does it work? How can it help me? CGM When used in conjunction with a Medtronic MiniLink™ Transmitter and Glucose Sensor, the insulin pump provides up to 288 glucose readings per day and displays trend graphs  CGM enables you to identify trends and make appropriate adjustments to your lifestyle or treatment. This may help to prevent or minimise glucose lows and highs Low Glucose Suspend* Automatically suspends insulin infusion if glucose levels fall below a specified limit Aims at preventing potentially severe hypoglycaemic excursions Predictive Alerts* Alerts you when glucose levels are likely to cross a high or low limit You don't need to wait for the alert of actually crossing a limit anymore and your reaction to this may help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemic excursions Rate of Change Alerts* Alerts you when glucose levels are rapidly rising or falling Your reaction to this alert may help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemic excursions Trend Arrows* Reveals how fast and in which direction glucose has moved over the past 20 minutes You can be aware of your glucose level trend at a glance andthis may help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemia Designed to Suit You What is it? How does it work? How can it help me? Discreet No bigger than a mobile phone, and will attach to a belt or fit in a pocket. Also comes with a remote control Fits in with your lifestyle Lockable keypad Just like a mobile phone, you can lock the buttons to prevent accidental delivery of insulin The keypad on the Paradigm™ Veo™ insulin pump can be locked to prevent accidental keypad presses and curious button pushing by young children Water resistant Protects against splashes or accidental immersion in water (IPX 7) Gives you the freedom to live more and worry less Individual 5 colour options and a range of SKINS allow you to personalise your pump Makes your pump as individual as you are Customisable therapy You deliver insulin only when you need it You have the freedom to set your own routine so you can eat, sleep and exercise whenever you like Paradigm Veo User Guide Paradigm Veo Menu Map
