Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods incorporating an infusion pump and a CGM that can include software that automatically populates a blood glucose section of a bolus calculator with a most recent valid CGM value. The software can additionally be programmed to automatically populate the bolus calculator with a single CGM reading only when one or more predefined conditions are met that aid in mitigating the risk of inaccurate and/or invalid single CGM readings.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for remotely monitoring and/or controlling medical therapy of a patient. Embodiments of the current disclosure provide a remote monitoring and/or control architecture that can establish a predetermined set of permissions for real time monitoring of patient data and/or notifications and/or control of medical device therapy. The system can include permissions to determine who, how and when information and/or control is shared that can consider factors such as time, location and relationship with the patient.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for transitioning to sleep mode or otherwise modified glucose target range in automated insulin delivery systems. For example, sleep mode can include a lower glucose target and/or lower and narrower glucose target range because of fewer variables that affect glucose values during sleep such as eating and exercise. Due to increased stability provided by the sleep mode target range, it is desirable to transition to the sleep mode target range as quickly as possible, while ensuring the transition is done safely and does not risk low glucose or hypoglycemia by too quickly switching to the lower and narrower target range. Systems and methods disclosed herein therefore provide various approaches for safely and quickly transitioning to sleep mode or other modified target ranges in order to improve time in range by being more aggressive to get to the lower sleep mode or other target faster without risking hypoglycemia.

Abstract: A deck tile assembly is disclosed. The deck tile assembly comprises a frame having at least four sides. The deck tile assembly further comprises a plurality of bars for providing a support structure to the frame. The deck tile assembly further comprises at least two parallel sleepers permanently attached between two opposite sides of the frame and mounted on the plurality of bars. The deck tile assembly further comprises at least two step clip fastening devices, wherein each of the step clip fastening device is mounted on one of the at least two parallel sleepers. The deck tile assembly further comprises at least two supporting members for attaching the frame with the ground surface.

Abstract: The portable communication terminal for communicating on at least two independent radio networks, comprises, in a single housing: Communication means (47, 49) by time multiplexing on a single radio channel, TDMA type full-duplex, for audio communication in “conference” and “hands-free” mode on a first autonomous network without infrastructure, Access means (43, 50) for half-duplex audio communication on a second autonomous network, independent from the first full-duplex network, A connection to a microphone (41) and a speaker (52), A wireless connection for a cellular telephone network, At least one pushbutton (45) for switching the communication of the microphone and the loudspeaker to and from the communication on the first network, the second network or the cellular telephone network by means of electronic switching circuits and An electronic codec type audio signal mixer (42, 51) having a plurality of inputs and outputs, configured to mix half-duplex communications on the full-duplex local area network

Abstract: A communication terminal having a digital communication circuit and an automatic synchronizer. The digital communication circuit utilizes time division multiplexing in a single radio channel, selectable in a frequency band. The terminal implements a wireless communication in a conference and hands-free mode on an autonomous network between at least two wearers of similar terminals. The automatic synchronizer synchronizes to the signal of other terminal in the group to synchronize its internal time reference. This ensures the continuity of communication between each terminal in the group within a range of each other, even when the communication is lost with other terminals in the group. No particular terminal is required to maintain the synchronization in the group.

Abstract: A method for endoluminally isolating a pathological defect in a body passageway. The method includes the steps of advancing a graft through the body passageway and attaching a distal portion of the graft to the interior surface of the body passageway. A proximal portion of the graft is sized within the body passageway. The method sizes the graft by moving an intraluminal cutting device through the body passageway relative to the graft and actuating the cutting device within the body passageway at a predetermined position relative to the graft. The foregoing steps result in a graft being cut to a desired length within the body passageway. Contrast may be injected in the vicinity of the graft to facilitate the method. Graft cutting while the graft is contained in a guide sheath. Also, the graft may be attached to a stent for attaching it within the body passageway. A device for performing the method is also disclosed.

Abstract: A device for endoluminally cutting a graft is disclosed. The device includes an elongated catheter having an actuator at its proximal end and a cutting element remote from its proximal end. The actuator causes the cutting element to sever the graft endoluminally. The cutting element effects a cut through the wall of the graft to cut the graft, endoluminally, to a desired length. The cutting element includes a portion shaped so that the catheter can be positioned relative to the graft with the graft in close proximity to the cutting element.
