Abstract: Disclosed are a system, methods and computer-readable medium products that provide safety constraints for an insulin-delivery management program. Various examples provide safety constraints for a control algorithm-based drug delivery system that provides automatic delivery of a drug based on sensor input. Glucose measurement values may be received at regular time intervals from a sensor. A processor may predict future glucose values based on prior glucose measurement values. The safety constraints assist in safe operation of the drug delivery system during various operational scenarios. In some examples, predicted future glucose values may be used to implement safety constraints that mitigate under-delivery or over-delivery of the drug while not overly burdening the user of the drug delivery system and without sacrificing performance of the drug delivery system. Other safety constraints are also disclosed.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described herein relate to a closed loop artificial pancreas system. The artificial pancreas system seeks to automatically and continuously control the blood glucose level of a user by emulating the endocrine functionality of a healthy pancreas. The artificial pancreas system uses a closed loop control system with a cost function. The penalty function helps to bound the infusion rate of insulin to attempt to avoid hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. However, unlike conventional systems that use a generic or baseline parameter for a user's insulin needs in a cost function, the exemplary embodiments may use a customized parameter in the cost function that reflects the individualized insulin needs of the user. The use of the customized parameter causes the cost function to result in insulin dosages over time better suited to the individualized insulin needs of the user. This helps to better avoid hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.
