Rise And Fall Glucose Rate Alerts - Dexcom G4 Platinum User Manual

6.2.2

RISE AND FALL GLUCOSE RATE ALERTS

Rate alerts notify you when your glucose levels are rising (rise alert) or falling
(fall alert), and by how much. You can choose whether your receiver alerts you
when your sensor glucose value is either rising or falling 0.11 mmol/L or more
per minute, or 0.17 mmol/L or more per minute.
If you set your fall rate to 0.11 mmol/L per minute and
your sensor glucose readings fall at this rate or faster,
the "FALLING single arrow" screen will appear and
the receiver will vibrate or beep according to your
profile settings.
Fall alert
If you set your rise rate to 0.17 mmol/L per minute and
your sensor glucose readings rise at this rate or faster,
the "RISING double arrow" screen will appear and the
receiver will vibrate or beep according to your profile
settings.
Rapid rise alert
