Systems and methods for monitoring use of and ensuring continuity of functionality of insulin infusion pumps, glucose monitors, and other diabetes treatment equipment

A personal diabetes equipment management system, comprising:

• at least one durable diabetes treatment device, the at least one durable diabetes treatment device being adapted to be used with one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices;
• a remote server system including an estimated personal inventory database of diabetes supplies for a user, the estimated personal inventory database identifying operational durable diabetes treatment devices and operational disposable diabetes treatment devices in the possession of the user, the remote server system being adapted to:
• generate a usage model for the user regarding the at least one durable diabetes treatment device and the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices;
• maintain and update the estimated personal inventory database for the user;
• and
• apply predictive analytics based on current and historical supply usage data for the user, the usage model, and the estimated personal inventory database to maintain and update a list of items to be shipped to the user on a future date, wherein applying the predictive analytics includes drawing an inference of an accuracy of the estimated personal inventory database, and wherein the inference is weighted based on an amount of time that the user views the estimated personal inventory database at a graphical user interface without making changes to the estimated personal inventory database;
• and
• a controller in communication with (i) the at least one durable diabetes treatment device over a first network connection and (ii) the remote server system over a second network connection, the controller being adapted to:
• monitor for and automatically detect, based on at least one wireless communication received from the at least one durable diabetes treatment device over the first network connection, use of the at least one durable diabetes treatment device;
• monitor for and automatically detect that the user performs a maintenance activity including at least replacing a first disposable diabetes treatment device with a second disposable diabetes treatment device;
• monitor for and automatically detect an electrical change of the at least one durable diabetes treatment device, including a determination that an impedance value within the at least one durable diabetes treatment device changes more than a threshold amount or falls outside of an approved range;
• and
• determine an operational condition for the at least one durable diabetes treatment device or the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices based, at least in part, on information received from the at least one durable diabetes treatment device over the first network connection, the controller transmitting update information to the remote server system over the second network connection to update the estimated personal inventory database to reflect the number of operational durable diabetes treatment devices and disposable diabetes treatment devices in the possession of the user, wherein the update information is based at least in part on the monitoring for the use of the at least one durable diabetes treatment device, the monitoring for the maintenance activity, the monitoring for the electrical change, and determination of the operational condition for the at least one durable diabetes treatment device or the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices and wherein information on the operational condition for the at least one durable diabetes treatment device or the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices is used to update the estimated personal inventory database to reflect the number of operational durable diabetes treatment devices and disposable diabetes treatment devices in the possession of the user;
• wherein the personal diabetes equipment management system ensures continuity of diabetes treatment by providing for replacement of the at least one durable diabetes treatment device and the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices based on the monitoring and the estimated personal inventory database.
