A low-cost medical pump for ambulatory use provides reduced life components combined with a pump lockout enforcing a safe operating limit and preventing reuse after that limit is exceeded. An improved IV line clamp portion minimizes unsupported clamp structure length and provides a dual lock system preventing inadvertent clamp release.

The subject technology is embodied in a method for predicting a delivery rate of a plurality of drugs dispensed by multiple infusion pumps at a delivery point. The method includes receiving one or more operating parameters related to multiple drug pumps and a carrier fluid pump, wherein each of the drug pumps dispenses a drug, and the carrier fluid pump dispenses a carrier fluid. The method also includes determining a delivery rate of a first drug at the delivery point. This can be done by predicting time variation of a concentration of the first drug at the delivery point based on a mathematical model of a mixed flow through a fluid path that terminates at the delivery point. The mixed flow includes the drugs and the carrier fluid. The model includes the operating parameters and a plurality of flow-parameters related to the mathematical model of the mixed flow.

An infusion management method and a system are provided. The system includes the following. A central station is configured to acquire first patient information and first medication information, and send the first patient information and the first medication information to a work station. The work station is configured to receive the first patient information and the first medication information and save the first patient information and the first medication information as first information. The central station is further configured to generate a patient information carrier and a medication information carrier corresponding to the first medication information and the first medication information. An information reading device is configured to acquire second information from the patient information carrier and the medication information carrier. The work station is configured to acquire third information from the central station, acquire the second information, and determine whether the information are the same.

An improved basal insulin management system and an improved user interface for use therewith are provided. User interfaces are provided that dynamically display basal rate information and corresponding time segment information for a basal insulin program in a graphical format. The graphical presentation of the basal insulin program as it is being built by a user and the graphical presentation of a completed basal insulin program provides insulin management information to the user in a more intuitive and useful format. User interfaces further enable a user to make temporary adjustments to a predefined basal insulin program with the adjustments presented graphically to improve the user's understanding of the changes. As a result of being provided with the user interfaces described herein, users are less likely to make mistakes and are more likely to adjust basal rates more frequently, thereby contributing to better blood glucose control and improved health outcomes.

Disclosed herein is a system and method implementing a software-based method for detecting or confirming the detection of occlusions in the fluid path of an automatic drug delivery system. The invention uses real time glucose readings from a continuous glucose monitor in collaboration with past insulin delivery history and user indications of ingestion of carbohydrates, to determine cases where the user's glucose concentration is not being sufficiently impacted by the expected insulin delivery, which may indicate a significant pump site issue.

Disclosed herein are devices, methods and systems for monitoring and detection of adverse events in a subject. In an embodiment, an insulin delivery device includes an insulin injection device in communication with a controller for controlling the insulin injection device. The controller is configured to receive a heart signal from one or more heart sensors, and a blood glucose signal from one or more blood glucose sensors. The controller is further configured to analyze changes in the heart rhythm of the subject based on the heart signal and determine, based on the changes in the heart rhythm and the blood glucose signal, whether the subject is and/or will be experiencing an adverse event. Upon determination that the subject is or will be experiencing an adverse event, the controller determines one or more parameters of delivery of insulin to be delivered to the subject. Finally, the controller is configured to control the injection device to deliver insulin to the subject in accordance with the determined one or more parameters of delivery.

Disclosed herein is a system and method for calculating an expected peak blood glucose level of user during a post-prandial period, based on a quantity of carbohydrates to be ingested. The user's expected peak blood glucose levels for slow, medium and fast acting carbohydrates are calculated. The results are presented to the user to allow the user to make an informed decision regarding the type of meal to be ingested.
