Ramon and his friends got together for an unplanned game of soccer. Before using the pump, he was 
taking shots to manage his diabetes. Ramon experienced frequent low blood glucose reactions 
sometimes during, and very often after, he played games with his friends. Now that he is using his 
Paradigm pump, he can use the Temporary Basal Rate feature to help prevent low blood glucose. He 
simply programs his pump to temporarily deliver less basal insulin during the time that he is playing, 
and often for several hours after play, as well. 
Ramon was able to determine how to set his Temporary Basal rates by frequent blood glucose 
testing, both during and after activity, and recording his results. The first time he tried using the 
pump, his healthcare professional advised him to program his pump to deliver ½ his usual basal rate 
for the amount of time that he was playing and for an hour after he was done. He made small 
adjustments of the temporary basal rate and the duration of time, each time he tried to use the 
feature. After several different attempts with similar activity for the same amount of time, (such as 
his soccer game that lasted 2 hours), he found a temporary basal rate that worked well for him.
