Abstract
Disclosed are methods and apparatus for determining analyte concentration in a sample such as bodily fluid. Systems and methods disclosed herein can also include a treatment dosing system to infuse or inject a treatment drug (e.g., insulin or glucose) and provide glycemic control. The dose of the treatment drug may be based on the concentration of the analyte or the average value for the concentration of the analyte and/or the rate of change of the value of the concentration of the analyte.
Claims10
A system, comprising:
- a monitoring device operable to monitor at least one analyte in a bodily fluid of a patient, the monitoring device operable to measure a characteristic of the at least one analyte;
- a control system coupled to the monitoring device operable to:
- automatically determine a dose of insulin based on the measured characteristic of the at least one analyte;
- a treatment dosing system coupled to the control system comprising a pump having a variable pump rate adjustable to deliver a basal rate and adjustable to deliver a bolus injection, wherein the control system is configured to adjust the variable pump rate based on the measured characteristic to deliver the determined dose of insulin as a basal rate or as a bolus injection;
- and
- a display device operable to present an indication of the measured characteristic in a graphical user interface.
