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.

-10. (canceled)
A method comprising:
- 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 user-specific physiological data that is physically entered by a user through a user interface of a device within a previous period of time, the previous period of time being less than 6 hours;
- and
- communicating the insulin delivery amount to the insulin pump.
-32. (canceled)
The glucose management system according to claim 21,
- wherein the controller determines a fault in the glucose management system;
- and
- wherein the controller instructs the user interface to output a fault indication.
The glucose management system according to claim 21, wherein the fault comprises a fault selected from the list consisting of a glucose monitoring device end-of-life fault, a transient fault, a permanent fault, a battery end-of-life fault, a pump fault, an occlusion, a glucose sensor pull-out fault, a controller fault, and a system operation fault.
The glucose management system according to claim 21, wherein the insulin delivery amount comprises an insulin correction to a basal insulin rate.
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 the previous insulin delivery data and the estimated glucose data to bring the estimated glucose data closer to a target glucose value without using user-specific data that is physically entered by a user through a user interface of the mobile device within the previous period of time, the previous period of time being less than 6 hours;
- and
- communicate the insulin delivery amount to the insulin pump.
