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: A broken dip stick tube or bushing remover is provided including a bolt having a cylindrical configuration with a top, a smooth intermediate extent, and a threaded bottom. A puller is provided having an upper portion with a cylindrical configuration and a threaded bore formed in a top face thereof for removably coupling with the threaded bottom of the bolt. The puller further has a bottom portion formed of a cylindrical rod with a diameter less than that of the upper portion and terminating in an enlarged head. The entire bottom portion has a plurality of longitudinal slots formed therein thereby forming multiple spaced resilient members which are adapted to be biased radially inward. A locking pin is situated between the spaced resilient members along an axis of the puller. Next provided is a slide hammer having a coaxial bore formed therein for allowing the intermediate extent of the bolt to be slidably situated therein.
