Basal-IQ Technology

When life gets busy, the fear of going low can really get in your way. Our Basal-IQ predictive low-glucose suspend technology can help you spend less time worrying about lows and more time living your life.

Responsive Insulin Delivery

The t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal‑IQ technology predicts and helps prevent lows. It can turn insulin delivery on and off as often as every five minutes.

Works Silently in the Background

No added alerts or alarms beyond standard continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and pump notifications.

Less Time Low

Relative reduction in sensor time below 70 mg/dL when clinical study participants used the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology.¹

Felt Very Confident

Percent of clinical study participants who said they felt very confident using the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal‑IQ technology.¹

Said it's Easy to Use

Percent of clinical study participants who said the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology was easy to use.¹

How it Works

Basal-IQ technology uses CGM values* to help reduce the frequency and duration of low-glucose events by predicting glucose levels 30 minutes ahead and suspending insulin if they are expected to drop below 80 mg/dL. Insulin delivery resumes as soon as sensor glucose values begin to rise.

Zero Fingersticks

Dexcom G6 CGM integration with the t:slim X2 pump provides exceptional accuracy for optimized insulin delivery.² Dexcom G6 is the first real-time, integrated continuous glucose monitoring (iCGM) system requiring zero fingersticks for calibration or mealtime dosing.^†

Freedom to Deliver

The t:connect mobile app frees you to bolus from your smartphone^‡ and stay informed of your diabetes management without touching your t:slim X2 pump. That increased flexibility means you can choose to wear your pump in more places.

Responsible Use of Basal-IQ Technology

Systems like the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology are not substitutes for active diabetes management, as there are common scenarios in which automated systems cannot prevent hypoglycemia. The Basal-IQ feature relies on continuous CGM readings and will not be able to predict glucose levels and suspend insulin delivery if your CGM is not working properly or is unable to communicate with your pump. Be sure to always use your pump, cartridges, CGM, and infusion sets as instructed and check them regularly to make sure they are working properly. Always pay attention to your symptoms, actively monitor your glucose levels, and treat according to your healthcare provider’s recommendations.

* Dexcom CGM sold separately.

† Zero fingersticks required when using the t:slim X2 pump with Dexcom G6 CGM integration. If glucose alerts and CGM readings do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.

‡ Bolus delivery from the t:connect mobile app requires a compatible smartphone model and operating system, an app update, a remote software update on the customer’s t:slim X2 insulin pump and additional training. Only available to customers who reside in the United States.

§ Additional feature updates are not currently available for the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology and are subject to regulatory approvals. Future updates for some or all of Tandem's products may not be developed and may not be offered everywhere. Software updates are only available to customers who are in warranty at the time they update their pump, and may require a prescription and additional training. Charges may apply. Tandem may discontinue select software and features over time at its discretion.

Important Safety Information

RX ONLY. The t:slim X2 pump and Basal-IQ technology are intended for single patient use for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons six years of age and greater. The t:slim X2 pump and Basal-IQ technology are indicated for use with U-100 insulin only. t:slim X2 insulin pump: The t:slim X2 insulin pump with interoperable technology is an alternate controller enabled (ACE) pump that is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in people requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. Basal-IQ technology: Basal-IQ technology is intended for use with a compatible integrated continuous glucose monitor (iCGM, sold separately) and ACE pump to automatically suspend delivery of insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose values. The bolus calculator is indicated for the management of diabetes by people with diabetes by calculating an insulin dose or carbohydrate intake based on user entered data. Users of the t:slim X2 pump and Basal-IQ technology must: be able and willing to use the insulin pump, CGM, and all other system components in accordance with their respective instructions for use; test blood glucose levels as recommended by their healthcare provider; demonstrate adequate carb-counting skills; maintain sufficient diabetes self-care skills; see healthcare provider(s) regularly; and have adequate vision and/or hearing to recognize all functions of the pump, including alerts, alarms, and reminders. The t:slim X2 pump, transmitter, and sensor must be removed before MRI, CT, or diathermy treatment. Visit www.tandemdiabetes.com/safetyinfo for additional important safety information.

t:connect mobile app: The feature set available within the t:connect mobile app is dependent on the pump software version and the compatible smartphone’s model and operating system (OS).

The Display and Data Upload feature set provides a secondary display of pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) information, including display of your pump alerts and alarms, and enables wireless uploading of pump and CGM data to the Tandem cloud through an internet or wireless data connection. Standard carrier data rates may apply.
The Bolus Delivery plus Display and Data Upload feature set additionally allows users to request, stop, and cancel a bolus on the pump from the t:connect mobile app. At least one smartphone security setting must be enabled to utilize the Bolus Delivery feature of the t:connect mobile app.
WARNING: Always rely on your pump to make therapy decisions when using a smartphone that is incompatible with the Bolus Delivery feature.
PRECAUTIONS: Always rely on your pump to make therapy decisions if using a smartphone that is incompatible, the smartphone is lost or damaged, or the smartphone loses Bluetooth® connectivity with your pump. Important pump alerts and alarms are only received as app notifications when enabled and the app is either active or running in the background.
