Abstract
Some embodiments include burden-free insulin delivery systems and methods. In some embodiments, a method may include receiving previous insulin delivery data at a user device from an insulin pump; receiving estimated glucose data at the user device from a continuous glucose monitor; determining an insulin delivery amount based on the previous insulin delivery data and the estimated glucose data to bring the estimated glucose data closer to a target glucose value without using any user-specific behavioral data physically entered by a user through a user interface of the user device within a previous period of time, the previous period of time being less than six hours; and communicating the insulin delivery amount to the insulin pump.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving previous insulin delivery data at a user device from an insulin pump;
- receiving at the user device estimated glucose data from a continuous glucose monitor;
- determining by the user device an insulin delivery amount based on 1) the previous insulin delivery data, 2) the estimated glucose data, and 3) user-specific behavioral data physically entered by a user through a user interface of the user device before expiration of a previous period of time to bring the estimated glucose data closer to a target glucose value, the previous period of time being three hours;
- and
- communicating the insulin delivery amount from the user device to the insulin pump.
A glucose management system comprising:
- a glucose monitoring device;
- an insulin pump;
- a user interface;
- and
- a controller in communication with the glucose monitoring device, the insulin pump, and the user interface, the controller receives previous insulin delivery data from the insulin pump, the controller receives estimated glucose data from the glucose monitoring device, the controller determines an insulin delivery amount based on 1) the previous insulin delivery data, 2) the estimated glucose data, and 3) user-specific behavioral data physically entered by a user through a user interface of the user device before expiration of a previous period of time to bring an estimated glucose data closer to a target glucose value, the previous period of time being three hours, and the controller communicates the insulin delivery amount to the insulin pump.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a mobile computing device, cause the mobile computing device to:
- receive previous insulin delivery data from an insulin pump;
- receive estimated glucose data from a continuous glucose monitor;
- determine an insulin delivery amount based on 1) the previous insulin delivery data, 2) the estimated glucose data, and 3) user-specific behavioral data physically entered by a user through a user interface of the user device before expiration of a previous period of time to bring the estimated glucose data closer to a target glucose value, the previous period of time being three hours;
- and
- communicate the insulin delivery amount to the insulin pump.
