  • Publication number: 20240071609
    Abstract: An infusion pump configured to automatically determine whether to receive an update comprises a battery, a processor, communication engine, a memory, and a clock. The processor is configured to receive power from the battery. The communication is in communication with the processor and configured to communicate with a remote location. The memory is in communication with the processor and stores instructions. When executed by the processor, the instructions configure the processor to wake the processor from an off state, determine that the infusion pump is receiving electrical power from the battery, and determine whether the battery contains sufficient energy to complete an update to the infusion pump. In response to determining that the battery contains sufficient energy, the instructions further configure the processor to wake the communication engine from an off to determine whether the update is available to be acquired from the remote location.

  • Publication number: 20220305200
    Abstract: An infusion pump system and method with common line auto flush, wherein the infusion pump system has a first reservoir, a second reservoir, a junction, a common line having one end in fluid connection with the junction and having a terminal fluid delivery end, and an infusion pump. The method includes infusing the first fluid at a first rate along a first flow path; entering a common line flush volume value for the common line; switching from the first flow path to a second flow path; driving the second fluid at the first rate along the second flow path; monitoring volume of the second fluid driven at the first rate; and driving the second fluid at a second rate along the second flow path when the monitored volume is equal to or greater than the common line flush volume value.
