Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

Abstract: An amine functional compound comprising i. least one segment consisting of at least one ether unit E and at least one ester unit, wherein the ether units and ester units are connected by an ether link or by an ester link, and wherein the sum of the number of ether units and ester units is at least three, and wherein the ether units and ester units are arranged in random order, and ii. at least one amine group ii. selected from a tertiary amine group, a salt of a tertiary amine group and a quaternary ammonium group, wherein the at least one segment is covalently linked to a polymerization starter moiety comprising the at least one amine group ii.
