 MPI_Isend starts a standard-mode, nonblocking send. Nonblocking calls allocate a communication request object and associate it with the request handle (the argument request). The request can be used later to query the status of the communication or wait for its completion. 
 .sp
 A nonblocking send call indicates that the system may start copying data out of the send buffer. The sender should not access any part of the send buffer after a nonblocking send operation is called, until the send completes. 
+.sp
+A send request can be determined being completed by calling the MPI_Wait, MPI_Waitany, MPI_Test, or MPI_Testany with request returned by this function.
 
 .SH ERRORS
 Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ functions do not return errors. If the default error handler is set to MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism will be used to throw an MPI:Exception object.
