Changing The Infusion Set On My Minimed 670G

If you’re new to the insulin pump scene or even a current user, some of the steps required to change up your infusion set can seem a little intimidating. Especially if you read all the instructions and steps as laid out in your instruction manuals or watch the training videos. But once you’ve done it a couple of times, it becomes second nature and can even be done on muscle memory.

In the following video from my YouTube channel, I demonstrate how quickly I can change up an infusion set, even during the middle of the night and when my blood sugar was sitting at 3.9 mmol/L. This process can be different, depending on what make and model of insulin pump you use, but the steps are effectively the same. ☯

I enjoy fitness and health and looking for new ways to improve both, as well as examining the many questions of life. Although I have no formal medical training, I have amassed a wealth of knowledge regarding health, Diabetes, martial arts as well as Buddhism and philosophy. My goal is to share this information with the world, and perhaps provide some sarcastic humour along the way. Welcome!
