puncture-resistant container. Then wash your hands with soap
and water.

Blood Glucose Results and the Suggested Bolus
n
Calculator
If the suggested bolus calculator feature is turned On when you
check your blood glucose, the PDM will display the result. From
here, press Next to enter carbs (if eating) and have the System
calculate a suggested bolus. (See "Suggested Bolus Calculator" in
Chapter 4, Understanding and Delivering Bolus Doses.)
If you use the suggested bolus calculator within 10
minutes after taking a blood glucose reading, or if you
store a BG reading (for example, one you enter manually)
within the same 10 minutes, that BG value will be used
automatically in the suggested bolus calculator process
(Figure 7-33).
If the suggested bolus calculator feature is turned Off, the Next
soft key does not appear. Instead:
Press Bolus to open a screen where you can enter a bolus
manually.
Or press Done to return to the Status screen to see the most
recent BG result.
The BG result, either from the PDM or from manual entry, is stored
in the System's history, whether suggested bolus calculator is
turned On or Off. (See "Blood Glucose Records" in Chapter 8,
Understanding Your Records.)
