Block feature

The block allows you to prevent (block) people from changing pump setting that should not be working with the pump s settings. This feature is an important safety feature, especially if the pump user requires someone else to maintain complete control of pump operation. The factory setting for this feature is off. When block is on, the remote control is used to deliver a bolus and suspend the pump. Direct pump programming is limited to suspend, block, and selftest. You can, however, still view status-type screens (STATUS, BOLUS and PRIME HISTORY, BASAL REVIEW, DAILY TOTALS, etc.). Discuss what uses and settings are best for you with your healthcare professional. (You can order the remote control from Medtronic MiniMed.)

Example 1: Block

Nicholas is a very active toddler who wears a Paradigm pump. His parents don't want to worry that he will play with the pump and accidentally change his programmed settings. They simply activated the Block feature, and now, except for the Suspend and Self-Test, no other features are active when using the pump buttons. When Nicholas needs a bolus, his parents and caregivers simply program it with the Remote Control.

Example 2: Block

Oscar is an elderly man with diabetes who needs assistance with all of his daily living activities. He needs his caregiver or family member to help him with his pump as well. To be sure that Oscar does not change any pump settings, his family programmed his Paradigm pump with the Block feature turned on. They use the Remote Control to give him his boluses when he needs them.
