  • Publication number: 20250082840
    Abstract: A smart charging station may be capable of accessing data from an ambulatory medicament device at particular times, such as when the ambulatory medicament device is charging or connected to the charging station. The smart charging station may then communicate the data to another electronic system, such as a remote system. Advantageously, the charging station enables an ambulatory medicament device that may not be capable of communicating with a remote system to transfer ambulatory medicament device data to the remote system. Further, the remote system may communicate with the ambulatory medicament device via the charging station enabling, for example, control parameter updates, software updates, or permission modifications, among other communications with the ambulatory medicament device regardless of whether direct communication with the ambulatory medicament device is possible.

  • Patent number: 12204889
    Abstract: Systems and methods relate to an ambulatory medicament device that can generate a dose control signal to cause a medicament pump to infuse medicament into a subject. The system can analyze status to determine whether an alarm condition for the ambulatory medicament device or for a subject is already present in a list of pending alarm conditions. If the alarm is not present, the system can determine a severity level of the alarm condition from among a plurality of severity levels and annunciate the alarm condition using one or more annunciation patterns selected based on the severity level of the alarm condition for the medicament device or for the subject. The system may maintain an indication of the alarm condition on the list of pending alarm conditions until the alarm condition is resolved.

  • Patent number: 11957876
    Abstract: An automated blood glucose control system is configured to generate a backup therapy protocol comprising insulin therapy instructions derived from autonomously determined doses of insulin. The system generates a dose control signal using a control algorithm configured to autonomously determine doses of insulin to be infused into a subject for the purpose of controlling blood glucose of the subject based at least in part on a glucose level signal received from a glucose sensor. The system can track insulin therapy administered to the subject over a tracking period, including storing an indication of the autonomously determined doses of insulin delivered to the subject as basal insulin, as correction boluses of insulin, or as mealtime boluses of insulin. The system can generate a backup injection therapy protocol or a backup pump therapy protocol with insulin therapy instructions based at least in part on the insulin therapy administered to the subject over the tracking period.

  • Patent number: 11766518
    Abstract: A blood glucose control system is configured to modify therapy provided to a subject. The system can cause first therapy to be delivered by the blood glucose control system to a subject during a first therapy period. The first therapy can be delivered based at least in part on a first value of a control parameter used by a control algorithm to generate a dose control signal. The system can determine a first effect corresponding at least in part to the first therapy and autonomously generate a second value of the control parameter. The system can cause second therapy to be delivered by the blood glucose control system to the subject during a second therapy period, wherein the second therapy is delivered based at least in part on the second value of the control parameter.

  • Patent number: 11744947
    Abstract: A blood glucose control system is configured to modify therapy provide to a subject and determine whether the modified therapy results in a statistically significant improvement in glycemic control. The system obtains glycemic control information resulting from delivery of first therapy using a first value of a control parameter and determines a first effect corresponding to the first therapy. The control parameter is set to a second value that differs from the first value. The system obtains glycemic control information resulting from the delivery of the second therapy using the second value of the control parameter and determines a second effect corresponding to the second therapy. The system can perform a comparative assessment and determine whether the second value for the control parameter results in a statistically significant improvement in glycemic control for the subject.
