Stopping and resuming insulin delivery


Device: MiniMed 780G insulin pump

Use Suspend All Delivery if you need to stop all active basal and bolus insulin deliveries. You should suspend all insulin delivery any time you need to be disconnected from your pump (like if you’re swimming or bathing) even if it’s for a short period of time. While your insulin delivery is suspended, your pump beeps, vibrates, or both depending on your audio settings. This occurs every 15 minutes to remind you that insulin is not being delivered.

  2. Select Suspend all Delivery
