Provided herein are systems and methods for monitoring one or more health or physiological parameters in a subject. The systems and methods may comprise a patch coupled to an injector. Data may be transmitted to a mobile device or remote server, where the data may be processed. Processed data may be used to inform a subject on a health or physiological condition.
INTEGRATED CLOSED-LOOP ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS AND DATA OBTAINING METHOD FOR PROGRAM MODULE THEREOF
An integrated closed-loop artificial pancreas includes: a detection module; a program module which is imported into the total daily dose algorithm and the current insulin infusion algorithm; and an infusion module which is connected to the program module. The infusion module includes an infusion tube which is used as the insulin infusion channel, the detecting electrodes are provided on/in the wall of the infusion tube, and the infusion module can infuse insulin required according to the data of the current insulin infusion dose. It takes only one insertion to perform both glucose detection and insulin infusion.
WIRED CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING INFUSION SET
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for managing blood glucose in a subject. An insulin delivery cannula may comprise a hollow tube comprising proximal and distal ends, the proximal end in fluid communication with an insulin source, and the distal end configured to deliver insulin into a subcutaneous space. An insulin infusion pump may be fluidically coupled to the proximal end, and attached to the insulin delivery cannula directly or via an intervening tube. The glucose sensor and the insulin delivery cannula may be configured to be inserted into the subcutaneous space simultaneously by a single insertion device. A lumen of the insulin delivery cannula may be contiguous with a lumen of tubing from the insulin infusion pump. Electrical conductors for the electrodes may be disposed on a wall of the tubing or attached to a surface of the tubing, and establish an electrical connection with an electronic module.
DEVICE FOR DELIVERING MEDICATION INCLUDING INTERPOSER
A device is disclosed that is configured as a fully autonomous and integrated wearable apparatus for diabetes management. The device comprises a reservoir for storing the medication for subsequent delivery to a patient, a needle for delivering the medication to the patient subcutaneously, a micropump for pumping the medication from the reservoir through the needle for delivering the medication to the patient, control circuitry controlling operations of the micropump, an interposer configured as an adapter for (1) mounting the reservoir, micropump, the control circuitry and the needle, and (2) distributing medication through one or more channels within the interposer from the reservoir to the needle via the micropump and electrical signals between the control circuitry and micropump.
Medication fluid infusion set component with integrated physiological analyte sensor, and corresponding fluid infusion device
Disclosed is a medical device component for delivering medication fluid to a patient. The medical device component includes a fluid infusion device to regulate delivery of medication fluid, a body-mountable base unit, and a top cover assembly that is removably couplable to the base unit and to the fluid infusion device. The base unit includes a cannula to deliver medication fluid under the control of the fluid infusion device, and a physiological analyte sensor to measure a physiological characteristic. The base unit also includes an electronics assembly electrically connected to sensor leads to obtain measurements in the analog domain, to convert measurements into digital sensor data, and to communicate conditioned digital sensor data to the fluid infusion device. The top cover assembly is configured to provide both fluid and electrical connections for the base unit, by way of an infusion tube having sensor conductors integrated therein or otherwise associated therewith.
Closed-loop blood glucose control systems and methods
An automated closed-loop blood glucose control system comprises a continuous glucose-monitoring sensor (101), a subcutaneous insulin delivery device (103); and a controller (105) which determines a maximal allowable insulin injection amount and determines an insulin delivery control signal on the basis of the maximal allowable insulin injection amount and the quantity of insulin to inject.
ADAPTATION OF MEDICAMENT DELIVERY IN RESPONSE TO USER STRESS LOAD
Disclosed are an automatic medication delivery system includes a stress detection and response algorithm or application that may operate in cooperation with a medication delivery algorithm or application. Execution of the instructions of the stress detection and response application causes a processor to obtain a respective measurement value related to a physiological condition of a user from one or more sensors. The obtained respective measurement values are evaluated against a respective threshold measurement value. The processor determines, based on the evaluation of the obtained respective measurement values, a degree of stress the user is experiencing. In response to the determination of the degree of stress the user is experiencing, the processor may modify an imminent dosage of a liquid drug to be delivered, a time of delivery of the imminent dosage, or both. A dosage of the liquid drug may be expelled based on the modifying.
INFRARED IMAGING, MEASUREMENT, AND ANALYSIS OF INFUSION SITES DURING SUBCUTANEOUS AND INTRAVENOUS INFUSIONS
A system and method for imaging an anatomical structure corresponding to an infusion therapy anatomical site includes a processor to execute applications stored in a non-transitory computerreadable medium, the applications includes a first application to receive imaging information corresponding to radiant energy from the infusion therapy anatomical site, a second application to decompose the received imaging information into discrete image components, a third application to receive at least one of patient biographic profile characteristics and infusion therapy parameters, and a fourth application to receive the discrete image components, the patient biographic profile characteristics and the infusion therapy parameters and to provide a recommended clinical intervention based on at least one of the discrete image components, the patient biographic profile characteristics, and the infusion therapy parameters.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DIABETES MANAGEMENT
