Abstract
Embodiments are directed to infusion devices, systems, and methods to detect a capacity of a collapsible fluid reservoir of an infusion cartridge and/or a volume of a fluid disposed in the collapsible fluid reservoir or some other parameters of the infusion cartridge, and setting corresponding therapeutic parameters of an infusion device. Embodiments may include, obtaining data on the volume of fluid in the collapsible fluid reservoir, analyzing the obtained data to determine the setting of therapeutic parameters, and setting one or more therapeutic parameters of an infusion device.
Claims28
A method for detecting a capacity of a collapsible fluid reservoir in an infusion cartridge and setting therapeutic parameters of a portable infusion pump, comprising:
- obtaining data on a capacity of the collapsible fluid reservoir;
- analyzing obtained data on the capacity of the collapsible fluid reservoir to determine the setting of therapeutic parameters of the infusion pump;
- and
- setting one or more therapeutic parameters of the infusion pump based on the obtained data.
A method for detecting a volume of a fluid disposed in a collapsible fluid reservoir of an infusion cartridge and setting therapeutic parameters, comprising:
- obtaining data on the volume of the fluid disposed in a collapsible fluid reservoir;
- analyzing the obtained data on the volume of the fluid to determine the setting of therapeutic parameters;
- and
- setting one or more therapeutic parameters of an infusion pump based on the analysis.
A method for detecting presence of an infusion cartridge in a portable infusion pump, comprising:
- illuminating a plurality of reflecting stripes on the infusion cartridge;
- detecting reflected light from the reflecting stripes;
- determining whether data represented by the reflected light has a predetermined value;
- and
- generating a warning signal when data represented by the reflected light differs from the predetermined value.
