20080234663 | Method for Selecting Bolus Doses in a Drug Delivery System - A method, apparatus and system for selecting a bolus dose of a drug in a drug delivery device is disclosed. The method comprises selecting the bolus dose from a pre-determined schedule of bolus doses, wherein each dose corresponds to a range of a body analyte levels. | 09-25-2008 |
20090018406 | Method and Device for Assessing Carbohydrate-to-Insulin Ratio - A system and a method for determining an assessed carbohydrate to insulin ratio of a patient is described. The system and the method can comprise a memory component adapted for storing an initial set of values comprising at least one of a blood glucose level, a target blood glucose level, an insulin sensitivity, and, an estimated carbohydrate to insulin ratio. The system and the method can also comprise a bolus selection component adapted for selecting a test bolus corresponding to the determined initial set of values and a planned meal. In one implementation, the bolus selection component can receive bolus dose input from a user. In another implementation, the bolus selection component can estimate the bolus dose using a set of available inputs (e.g. the amount of carbohydrates in the planned meal). The system and the method can further comprise a user interface component adapted for receiving a confirmation that the test bolus has been administered to the patient. In some implementations, the user interface component can be adapted for selecting a meal of a known content. | 01-15-2009 |
20100137695 | DEVICE FOR METHOD FACILITATING INFUSION OF THERAPEUTIC FLUIDS AND SENSING OF BODILY ANALYTES - Disclosed is an assembly for use with a portable therapeutic device. The assembly includes a mounting housing securable to skin of a patient, and a cannula subcutaneously insertable through a passageway provided within the housing. The cannula is configured to be inserted subsequent to securing of the housing to the skin of the patient. | 06-03-2010 |

20100249558 | Hypodermic Optical Monitoring of Bodily Analyte - Disclosed is a skin adherable device for monitoring analytes in interstitial fluid. The device includes an electromagnetic radiation emitting source and a transmitter for transmitting the electromagnetic radiation between the electromagnetic radiation emitting source and the interstitial fluid. The device further includes a detector, operating electronics and a power supply. The device may include a reusable part and a disposable part. | 09-30-2010 |
20110071765 | Device and Method for Alleviating Postprandial Hyperglycemia - Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods, systems and devices for alleviating postprandial hyperglycemia, as well as to methods and devices for sustained medical infusion of fluids, using, for example, skin securable insulin dispensing systems/devices. | 03-24-2011 |
20120059352 | Insulin Delivery Safety - Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems, devices/apparatuses and methods for assessing a residual insulin value for a user/patient. Such embodiments may be implemented by selecting a first value corresponding to a duration of insulin action; selecting a second value corresponding to a lock out time duration, selecting a first time period beginning at a time point T | 03-08-2012 |
20120283694 | DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR QUANTIFYING BOLUS DOSES ACCORDING TO USER PARAMETERS - Devices, systems and methods for determining a recommended bolus dose of therapeutic fluid to be delivered to the body are disclosed. Such a recommended bolus dose may be provided by establishing an initial bolus dose for a user based on one or more first parameters relating to the user and adjusting (e.g., increasing or decreasing) this initial bolus dose amount based on one or more second user parameters by multiplying the initial bolus dose by one or more multiplier values that correlate to at least one of the second parameters and/or by adding or subtracting an absolute value of at least one of the second parameters from the initial bolus dose amount. | 11-08-2012 |
