The Paradigm Veo is not just any pump.
This pump has been designed for You.
In a world first it takes diabetes management to a new level.
The Paradigm Veo is equipped with a Low Glucose Suspend21 (LGS) mechanism, which will automatically suspend insulin delivery whenever your glucose levels are too low, which can help to reduce the risk of severe hypoglycaemia. And being a CGM-Ready pump, the Paradigm Veo system can offer you the insight of Continuous Glucose Monitoring22 as well. Giving you all the information you need to make the right decisions:

While research shows that CGM helps manage diabetes better, we also understand that not everybody is ready or able to monitor their glucose levels in this way. That’s why we refer to our pumps as CGM-Ready. It simply means that you can switch CGM functionality on or off at any time – depending on your preferences and requirements.
With the CGM function off, you get to use all of the advanced features of the pump itself, like the basal programmes, bolus types and Bolus Wizard® for example.
- Smart & Safe - Bolus Wizard® - Does the calculations for you and suggests bolus amounts
- Individual - 5 colour options and a range of SKINS allow you to personalise your pump
- Freedom - Have the freedom to set your own routine - eat, sleep & exercise when you like.
- Easy to use - Simple, intuitive navigation and on-screen instructions
- Helpful - Missed meal bolus reminder - may help forgetful people to avoid hyperglycaemia
- Discreet - No bigger than a mobile phone, and will attach to a belt or fit in a pocket
Don't Lock Yourself Out of CGM!
When you choose your insulin pump, you choose the pump for the warranty period, which is currently 4 years for all manufacturers. So the choice you make is important for your needs now and the future. Think how much has changed in the last 4 years? All sorts of things have increased in availability, from iPods to iPhones. As reimbursement changes over time too, the CGM landscape that is changing already will continue to develop - 4 years is a long time.
Choosing your Pump.........
We understand how difficult choosing an insulin pump can be. We3 have listed a few of the key features and benefits in a table below so that you can easily compare the Paradigm Veo with a range of other pumps on the market.
| Minimum basal rate of 0.025 U/hr | Set basal rates as low as 0.025 U/hr and adjust by increments as small as 0.025 U/hr | This is ideal if you only need very low amounts of basal insulin (e.g. very young children or insulin sensitive users) |
| Maximum bolus of 75 U | Delivers up to 75 U in a single bolus | This is ideal if you have high insulin demands or you are insulin resistant |
| Intuitive Navigation | Menus are modified automatically to speed up navigation to important screens | You don't need to press as many buttons |
| Simple Instructions | Improved menus for reservoir and infusion set changes. | Quicker and easier for you to change your infusion sets |
| Active Insulin Onboard | Informs you of active insulin on several screens where bolusing may occur | Helps prevent stacking of insulin – particularly useful if you tend to overcorrect |
| Missed Meal Bolus Alert | Warns you when a meal bolus seems to have been missed | Can help to avoid hyperglycaemia |
| Predictive Alerts1 | Alerts you when glucose levels are likely to cross a high or low limit | You don't need to wait for the alert of actually crossing a limit anymore and your reaction to this can help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemic excursions. |
| Rate of Change Alerts1 | Alerts you when glucose levels are rapidly rising or falling | Your reaction to this alert can help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemic excursions |
| Trend Arrows1 | Reveals how fast and in which direction glucose has moved over the past 20 minutes | You can be aware of your glucose level trend at a glance and can help avoid hypo- or hyperglycaemia |
| Low Glucose Suspend1 | Automatically suspends insulin infusion if glucose levels fall below a specified limit | Aims at preventing potentially severe hypoglycaemic excursions |
