Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, devices and articles, including a method for adaptive wireless communication transmissions between units of an ambulatory portable medical device. The method includes obtaining data relating to wireless transmissions between the units of the medical device, and setting one or more attributes of wireless transmission of one or more messages between the units of the medical device based, at least in part, on the obtained data.

Abstract: Devices and methods for powering a medical device for sustained delivery of fluids or continuous monitoring of body analyte are disclosed. The devices may comprise a pumping mechanism, a driving mechanism for activating the pumping mechanism to dispense fluid, and a power source coupled to the driving mechanism and having an energy storage cell for providing a pulsed power to the driving mechanism. The methods may be implemented by activating the driving mechanism using pulsed energy in the form of at least one pulse train pattern accumulated in and discharged from an energy storage component.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dispensing system. The dispensing system includes a dispensing unit to dispense therapeutic fluid, and a validation mechanism to enable operation of the dispensing unit based, at least in part, on a determination of whether operation of the dispensing device is authorized.

Abstract: Devices and methods for delivering therapeutic fluid to a patient's body are described. The devices may comprise a dispensing unit having a reservoir, a driving mechanism having a movable member for delivering therapeutic fluid to a patient's body, at least one sensor for sensing a relative position of the movable member and generating a signal, and a processor for controlling the driving mechanism to deliver an amount of therapeutic fluid that compensates for a change in the flow of the therapeutic fluid occurring during fluid delivery. The methods may be implemented by operating the driving mechanism, receiving a signal based on the position of the movable member, determining an amount of therapeutic fluid to deliver, and controlling the driving mechanism to deliver an amount of fluid that compensates for a change in flow occurring during fluid delivery.
