Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and techniques for detecting presence of leaks and/or holes in bed systems. An example system can include a bed system having a mattress to support a user laying on the bed system, at least one sensor that can be configured to collect pressure data on the bed system, and a computer system having a processor and memory. The computer system can be configured to: receive the pressure data that is collected by the at least one sensor, provide, as input, the pressure data to a model to detect presence of a leak in the mattress of the bed system based at least in part on the pressure data, receive, as output from the model, data indicating the detected presence of a leak in the mattress, and return a message indicating the detected presence of a leak in the mattress.

Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein relate to infusion devices and alerts. In some embodiments, the techniques may involve identifying an amount of future insulin deliveries to be delivered by an infusion device. The techniques may further involve determining a homeostasis metric by predicting a change in a current glucose measurement value based on accounting for metabolism of a current amount of active insulin and the amount of future insulin deliveries. The techniques may further involve generating an alert based at least in part on the homeostasis metric.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques related to regulation of insulin on board. In some examples, the techniques may involve obtaining a glucose measurement value generated from a sensing arrangement. The techniques may also involve determining that the glucose measurement value is a valid glucose measurement value. Furthermore, the techniques may involve maintaining a threshold amount of insulin on board (IOB) based on regulating insulin delivery. Maintaining the threshold amount of IOB may be performed responsive to the valid glucose measurement value being less than a threshold glucose value.

Abstract: Subject matter disclosed herein relates to monitoring and/or controlling blood glucose levels in patients. In particular, one or more substances may be delivered to a patient at a particular infusion rate while the patient's estimated glucose level is within a predetermined range. A different insulin infusion rate may then be applied if the patient's estimated blood glucose level deviates outside of the predetermined range.
