Abstract: A system configured for defining and implementing updated initial operational parameters of device controllers, the system having a controller that is configured to: monitor for updates to current operational parameters installed on the device controllers that are located over a distributed network, determine that common ones of the current operational parameters are updated to a common state a number of times above a threshold, and thereafter define the updated initial operating parameters, wherein the updated initial operating parameters include operational parameters in a state that matches the ones of the current operational parameters that were updated to the common state the number of times above the threshold, and thereafter initially program further device controllers to include the updated initial operating parameters.

Abstract: A variety of location-based and/or proximity-based features related to diabetes management systems can be used to improve maintenance compliance and/or to provide important information to PWD designated assistance entities (e.g., family, friends, givers, HCPs, emergency medicine providers) under certain conditions. In some cases, a user's location can be tracked or determined to trigger and/or time alerts about upcoming maintenance tasks in a way that will increase the likelihood that the PWD will immediately perform the designated maintenance task. In some cases, methods, devices, and systems provided herein can use proximity to non-paired mobile computing devices to deliver data to PWD designated assistance entities.

Abstract: A personal diabetes equipment management system can include at least one diabetes treatment device adapted for use with one or more disposable diabetes devices; a remote server system including an inventory database identifying operational diabetes treatment devices and operational disposable diabetes devices in the possession of a user; and a controller in communication with (i) the at least one diabetes treatment device over a first network connection and (ii) the remote server system over a second network connection, the controller adapted to automatically detect use of the at least one diabetes treatment device and determine an operational condition for the diabetes treatment device or the one or more disposable diabetes treatment devices based on information received from the at least one diabetes treatment device over the first network connection, the controller transmitting update information to the remote server system over the second network connection to update the inventory database.

Abstract: A diabetes management system including a pump for dispensing a medicant and a control device for controlling the pump includes a user interface for controlling functions of the pump and providing information related to operation of the pump and other information. The user interface can display blood glucose information and insulin dosing data such that a user can appropriately act on the information and/or gain confidence that the diabetes management system is operating appropriately to manage the disease. User interfaces provided herein can include displays of current and projected glucose values, bolus calculators, charts displaying glucose levels and/or insulin delivery data, system maintenance reminders, system status information, patient configuration input screens, and log-in screens. Diabetes management systems can include insulin pumps, continuous glucose monitors, blood glucose monitors, mobile computing devices, servers, and/or other insulin delivery devices (e.g., insulin pens).

Abstract: A packaging device for a trocar assembly includes a housing member having a first retaining member adapted for selective retention of a trocar assembly component relative to the housing member along a component longitudinal axis. The housing member further includes a shield member remote from the first retaining member. The shield member lies in a shield longitudinal axis which is substantially perpendicular to the component longitudinal axis. The housing member is substantially open adjacent the shield member along the component longitudinal axis.
