With the <strong>mylife</strong> OmniPod ® Insulin Management System<br />

The <strong>mylife</strong> OmniPod ® System was created by a father; a man who wanted his<br />

or simply play ball with friends.<br />

Easy to use<br />

Three simple steps to start insulin delivery<br />

The unique design of the <strong>mylife</strong> OmniPod ® allows for fewer accessories, and<br />

makes it much easier to prepare the system for use: it has the fewest steps to<br />

start insulin delivery.<br />

Virtually pain-free insertion<br />

Experience the world’s fastest insertion<br />

The virtually pain-free, automated insertion ensures<br />

cannula inserts with consistent depth and angle.<br />

The cannula is inserted in the blink of an eye in just<br />

0.005 seconds.<br />

It minimises errors and tissue damages and the<br />

needle is never visible.<br />

Fill<br />

Fill the Pod with insulin (from 85 up to 200 units<br />

of rapid-acting U-100 insulin, e.g. NovoRapid ® ,<br />

Humalog ® or Apidra ® ). The Pod automatically<br />

primes itself and performs a series of safety checks.<br />

Patch<br />

Apply Pod to the infusion site and run finger around<br />

the adhesive to ensure application.<br />

Pump<br />

Press “Start” to activate virtually pain-free, auto-<br />

mated insertion of the soft cannula and begin<br />

insulin delivery.<br />

6.5 mm<br />


No tubing – more flexibility<br />

Discreet and wearable in so many places<br />

The <strong>mylife</strong> OmniPod ® has no tubing. There is no<br />

need for carrying a pump on a belt clip, in a small<br />

pouch under clothes, or in a bra. No more snapped<br />

or twisted infusion sets.<br />

No need to disconnect<br />

The world’s only truly continuous insulin delivery system<br />

In daily life quite a lot of pump users disconnect<br />

when showering, swimming, exercising or during<br />

intimate moments, leaving them with an interrupted<br />

basal insulin flow. Not anymore. The tubeless and<br />

waterproof Pod communicates wirelessly with the<br />

PDM, so there is no need to disconnect. No matter<br />

what activities your patient chooses to do there<br />

is no more hassle to disconnect and reconnect,<br />

giving your patient more time to live their life.<br />

STUDY<br />

Truly continuous insulin infusion<br />

A prospective, open-label study, published<br />

in Diabetes Care, measured the impact of<br />

short-term infusion set disconnects on glucose<br />

levels. The conclusion: A “30-minute interruption<br />

of basal insulin infusion resulted in significant<br />

glucose elevation; ~1 mg/dL for each<br />

minute basal insulin infusion was interrupted.” 3<br />

Because the Pod is worn directly on the skin,<br />

<strong>mylife</strong> OmniPod ® is the world’s only truly<br />

continuous insulin delivery system; patients<br />

have no need to disconnect. As a result, it<br />

promises better control and reduced glycemic<br />

variability.<br />

insulin-pump infusion sets on glycemic excursions. Diabetes Care. 2008;<br />

31:238-239.<br />

A Pod can be worn wherever an injection would<br />

be possible with insulin pen treatment (MDI/ICT).<br />

And because it’s so small, it attracts less attention<br />

and provides a feeling of freedom your patient<br />

doesn’t get with a conventional pump.<br />

Eco-Pod Program<br />

Environmentally friendly<br />

We care for and respect our environment. Therefore<br />

we designed a unique program to have used Pods<br />

sent back to us and recycled in Switzerland.<br />

Patients collect the used Pods in the Recycling Box<br />

provided by Ypsomed and send them back. Our<br />

designated recycler in Switzerland takes the Pods<br />

completely apart and recycles their components.<br />

Please take part in our Eco-Pod Program by<br />

encouraging your patients to join and dispose of<br />

their Pods the right way.<br />
