Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for transitioning between different CGM sensors in an infusion pump system with no loss in continuity of glucose levels between different sensor for use in closed loop diabetes therapy. Notifications can be provided to the user when a subsequent CGM sensor ought to be inserted, based on specific mechanics of the previous CGM sensor and of the anticipated subsequent CGM sensor. The system can further provide a notification when the subsequent CGM sensor is activated following the warm up period and capable of transmitting CGM data for use in the system and can prompt the user to or automatically transition the system from communicating with the previous sensor for CGM data to the subsequent sensor. Following the transition, the system may also notify the user that the previous CGM sensor can be removed from the user's body.

Abstract: Enclosed herein are methods and systems for establishing communication protocols between wireless devices in infusion pump systems. Infusion pump systems can include a number of components capable of wireless communication with one or more other components including an infusion pump, a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system, and a smartphone or other multi-purpose consumer electronic device (i.e., remote control device). Communications among these devices can be coordinated to ensure reliable and consistent transmission of medical data.

Abstract: Infusion devices, systems, and methods can detect a presence or absence of an infusion cartridge in an infusion pump. Embodiments may include a loading sequence, recording loading pulse width modulation (PWM) commands applied to an infusion pump motor during the loading sequence, setting a value of threshold PWM commands based on the commands applied during the loading sequence and comparing values of operational PWM commands applied during pumping operations to the value of the threshold PWM commands. If the value of the operational PWM commands drops below the threshold by a predetermined amount, a missing infusion cartridge warning may be generated.

Abstract: Device and method embodiments are described which are capable of detecting and alerting a user of an infusion device to a hindrance in the ability to deliver measured quantities of fluids. In some cases, the devices and method embodiments for such occlusion detection do not require significant modification of an infusion device and can be carried out with a minimum of additional components.

Abstract: Occlusions in a delivery line of an infusion pump can be detected by measuring pressure differentials in the pump over short periods of time in order to minimize the effects of long term systematic sensor changes. In a delivery mode such as basal insulin delivery where a small portion of a volume of fluid is delivered, pressure readings can be obtained before and after the motor move to deliver each portion and compared. The differentials after one or more motor moves can be compared to determine whether an occlusion is present. In a delivery mode such as bolus insulin delivery in which an entire volume of fluid is delivered, pressure differentials can be obtained for consecutive deliveries at a common point in the delivery cycle of each delivery. Comparison of these pressure values can be used to determine whether an occlusion is present.

Abstract: An application interface is used to retrieve information from a data storage system and in particular, for a financial/business system or general ledger system. Data from the data storage system is retrieved using a data mart that supports a generalized or system-independent format. The interface instantiates a detail interface identified in a field of the data mart to communicate with, or drill back to, the data storage system to retrieve detailed data such as detail transaction data through an interface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a uniform financial reporting system interface, between a financial reporting tool and a general ledger database, which is capable of receiving a generalized request (non-database-specific request) from a report object or engine of a financial reporting tool. Based upon information included in the generalized request, the uniform interface accesses data from the general ledger database and returns the accessed data to the report object. The data is accessed from the general ledger database and returned to the report object by the uniform interface with the help of at least one staging table that has a standardized structure that is independent of a structure of the general ledger database.
