• "Insulin Sensitivity Factor" is often abbreviated as "ISF" on the pump display and throughout the
Owner's Booklet. Your Insulin Sensitivity Factor is how much you can reduce your blood glucose
with 1 unit of insulin.
• "Carbohydrates" is often abbreviated as "carbs" on the pump display and throughout the Owner's
Booklet. Foods that contain carbohydrates raise blood glucose. You will need to know how many
carbohydrates are in the foods you eat to make accurate decisions on how much insulin to bolus to
cover meals or snacks.
• "ezBG" appears on the pump display and throughout the Owner's Booklet. ezBG is a pump feature
that lets you calculate a suggested bolus amount to cover a high blood glucose.
• "ezCarb" appears on the pump display and throughout the Owner's Booklet. ezCarb is a pump
feature that lets you calculate a suggested bolus amount to cover the carbohydrates in a meal or
snack.
• "ezBolus" appears throughout the Owner's Booklet. ezBolus is a pump feature that lets you use
the Audio Bolus button as a shortcut to deliver a Normal Bolus. This lets you bypass all the pump
screens you would normally use to deliver a Normal Bolus and is only operational if the Audio Bolus
feature is turned OFF.
• When "fingerstick" appears on the pump display and throughout the Owner's Booklet, it refers to
glucose values obtained with a BG meter using a fingertip blood sample. Fingerstick tests give a
different type of glucose measurement than the glucose readings provided by the System, and are
necessary to calibrate the System and to help you make treatment decisions.
• All mentions of screen displays, menus, buttons, etc. in Section II refer to the Animas
Pump unless specifically stated otherwise.

and tracking patterns in persons (age 18 and older) with diabetes, and is intended to complement,
not replace, information obtained from standard home glucose monitoring devices. CGM aids in the
detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term
therapy adjustments, which may minimize these excursions. Interpretation of results from the Dexcom
G4 PLATINUM Sensor and Transmitter should be based on the trends and patterns seen with several
sequential readings over time.
The System is intended for single patient use and requires a prescription.
