time. This function is helpful during long meals, dinners, or receptions, or when
you have meals that are digested slowly. The Extended Bolus may also be
appropriate for people who have gastroparesis (delayed digestion).
The duration of bolus delivery can be programmed in 15-minute intervals up to
24 hours and begins immediately after confirmation.
