| 20100295686 | USABILITY FEATURES FOR INTEGRATED INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEM - Various systems and methods for improving the usability of continuous glucose monitors and drug delivery pumps are described. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100298685 | ADAPTIVE INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEM - A proactive system and method in which levels of glucose are monitored after a meal signal and compared to a safe range. If a monitored glucose level is outside the safe range, a post-prandial vertex of the glucose level is identified and an action is provided to more rapidly return the glucose level to a target level within the safe range than if no action was provided. In another aspect a control parameter in an IDM system is adjusted by determining a performance metric of the system as a function of the levels of glucose and a medication administration signal over a first window of time; and, if the performance metric is outside an expected range, adjusting the control parameter to adjust an amount of medication and to bring the performance metric inside the expected range. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100298765 | SAFETY FEATURES FOR INTEGRATED INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEM - Safety features are applied to an integrated insulin delivery system to enhance safety while accounting for glucose sensor bias and calibration errors. One safety feature includes comparisons of calibrations of the sensor to nominal sensitivity and taking action, such as limiting insulin delivery or taking a further calibration of the sensor. In another feature, an automatic resumption of a basal delivery rate is programmed into the delivery device to avoid the possibility of complete loss of delivery of insulin in the event that communication with the delivery device is disrupted. Other features include steps taken to avoid hypoglycemia in the event that the sensor is negatively biased. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20110130746 | SAFETY LAYER FOR INTEGRATED INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEM - An integrated diabetes management (IDM) system includes a safety layer which, in one configuration has two components, one located between a glucose sensor and a controller and a second component located between a controller and a pump, to monitor various aspects of signals and modify those signals for compatibility and safety purposes. In one application, the safety layer receives output control signals from a controller and modifies those control signals as a function of an actual amount of insulin delivered to the user. The safety layer allows for an increased level of safety in the IDM system and permits development of separate hardware and software upgrades with the safety layer assuring that compatibility between components will continue. | 06-02-2011 |
