1 Introduction Before You Begin 1.1. Welcome to your Omnipod® 5 System The Omnipod® 5 System is the first wearable, on-body, tubeless automated insulin delivery system. The Omnipod 5 System consists of a tubeless insulin Pod, the Omnipod® 5 app, and the Dexcom G6® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System. The Omnipod 5 System continuously adapts and automatically delivers insulin to your personal needs.
Introduction 1 Before You Begin exercise. When HypoProtect is activated, the system gives less basal insulin and aims for a Target Blood Glucose of 150 mg/dL. • Bolus Calculator: If your glucose level is high or if you are planning to eat, the Bolus Calculator can suggest a bolus amount of insulin based on your individual settings, entered values, and CGM trend when available. The Bolus Calculator allows for the immediate delivery of the bolus insulin in both Automated and Manual Mode.
1 Introduction Before You Begin 1.2. About this User Guide Caution: This User Guide is intended for use only with the Insulet-provided controller with the Omnipod 5 app, model PDM-USA-H001-MG, or the Omnipod 5 app on a compatible smartphone. To learn which version of the Insulet-provided controller you have, turn it over. If you see "PDM-USA-H001MG" on the back of the controller, this is the correct User Guide. If you do not see it, call Customer Care.
The Omnipod 5 Application and Omnipod 5 Algorithm are indicated for use with NovoLog, Humalog, Admelog, and Apidra U-100 insulin. The Omnipod 5 Bolus Calculator is a decision-support software intended for the management of diabetes in persons aged 6 and older requiring rapid-acting U-100 insulin.
1 Introduction Before You Begin 1.4. General Warnings and Safety Information Warning: The Omnipod 5 System is designed to use rapid-acting U100 insulin. The following U-100 rapid-acting insulin analogs have been tested and found to be safe for use in the Pod: NovoLog® (insulin aspart), Humalog® (insulin lispro), Admelog® (insulin lispro), and Apidra® (insulin glulisine). NovoLog, Humalog, and Admelog are compatible with the Omnipod 5 System for use up to 72 hours (3 days).
Introduction 1 Before You Begin Warning: If you are having symptoms that are not consistent with your blood glucose test results and you have followed all instructions described in this User Guide, contact your healthcare provider. Warning: The Omnipod 5 System should NOT be used at low atmospheric pressure (below 700 hPA). You could encounter such low atmospheric pressures at high elevations, such as when mountain climbing or living at elevations above 10,000 feet (3,000 meters).
1 Introduction Before You Begin Potential risks • The Omnipod 5 System uses CGM values and trends to calculate insulin delivery. If the CGM values are inaccurate, the System could deliver an inaccurate dose of insulin which could result in hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. • Wearing a Pod might cause infection. Be aware of signs of infection including: bleeding, pain, and skin irritation including redness. See your healthcare provider if irritation occurs.
• Phone numbers for your healthcare provider and/or physician in case of an emergency • Glucagon kit and written instructions for administering glucagon dosage if you are unconscious (see "24.4. Avoiding Lows, Highs, and Diabetic Ketoacidosis" on page 276) Before You Begin Introduction 1 Tip: Ask your healthcare provider to help you develop plans for handling emergency situations, including what to do if you cannot reach your healthcare provider.

2 System Terminology and Navigation Before You Begin 2.1. Terminology Term Description Activation The process of waking up a Pod and setting up exclusive communication with the Omnipod 5 app that woke it up. Insulin delivery, in units per hour, that is calculated by Omnipod 5 to keep your blood glucose within your desired range. This amount changes over time based on your history, CGM value, and trend.
CGM transmitter Component of a CGM that sends CGM values to the Pod. CGM value Glucose level measured by a CGM. CGMs send the current glucose value with a "trend arrow" which indicates whether your glucose values are going up, down, or remaining steady. Connecting In Omnipod 5, "connecting" refers to setting up wireless communication between system components. Omnipod 5 uses Bluetooth® wireless technology to communicate with your Pod.
2 System Terminology and Navigation Before You Begin Ketoacidosis (Diabetic ketoacidosis, or DKA) Ketones Manual bolus Manual Mode Microbolus Omnipod 5 algorithm Omnipod 5 application (app) Units Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious condition in which extremely high blood glucose levels and a severe lack of insulin cause the body to break down fat for energy. The breakdown of fat releases ketones into the blood and urine.
System Terminology and Navigation 2 Before You Begin Touchscreen basics The Omnipod 5 app displays messages and options for you on its touchscreen. Tapping and swiping The basic instructions for interacting with the touchscreen are explained here. Tap Touch the screen, then lift your finger up.
