Reverse correction (negative correction)
Using an individual’s correction factor (sensitivity factor), the
reverse correction is a calculation that reduces a portion of a
meal bolus dose when the patient’s blood glucose level is below
their blood glucose target. This feature is an option in the
OmniPod

Suggested bolus calculator
A feature that calculates bolus doses with user-specific settings
and inputs. The settings used to calculate a suggested bolus are
target BG, insulin-to-carbohydrate (IC) ratio, correction factor (CF)
and duration of insulin action. The inputs used to calculate a sug-
gested bolus are current BG, carbs entered, and insulin on board.
The bolus calculator can be turned Off or On in the PDM.

level to be. The OmniPod System uses this number in calculating
bolus doses.

Temporary basal preset
An adjustment in a basal rate, in either % or U/hr, that can be
