Insulin on board calculation, schedule and delivery
First Claim
1. An insulin delivery system comprising:
- an insulin delivery device configured to deliver insulin to a user of the system; and
a computer-based control unit associated with the insulin delivery device, the computer-based control unit having a computer-based processor, wherein the computer-based processor is configured to;
calculate a relative insulin on board value for a specific time by calculating a first value that represents a reference insulin on board value at the specific time, calculating a second value that represents an automated insulin on board value at the specific time, and subtracting one of the first and second values from the other;
determine a future insulin delivery schedule over a period of time based in part on the calculated relative insulin on board value; and
configure the insulin delivery device to deliver insulin according to the determined future insulin delivery schedule, andwherein the automated insulin on board value represents at least one insulin delivery automatically specified by the computer-based control unit.

Abstract
A system is provided with an insulin delivery device configured to deliver insulin to a user of the system and a computer-based control unit associated with the insulin delivery device. The computer-based control unit includes a user interface and a computer-based processor. The computer-based processor is configured to calculate a relative insulin on board value for a specific time by calculating a first value that represents a reference insulin on board value at the specific time, calculating a second value that represents an automated insulin on board value at the specific time, and subtracting one of the first and second values from the other. The automated insulin on board value represents at least one insulin delivery automatically specified by the computer-based control unit. Methods of use are also disclosed.

14. An insulin delivery device comprising:
-
an insulin delivery mechanism configured to deliver insulin to a user of the device; and a computer-based control unit coupled to the insulin delivery mechanism to automatically deliver insulin to the user, the computer-based control unit having a computer-based processor, wherein the computer-based processor is configured to; calculate a relative insulin on board value associated with a specific time period by calculating a first value that represents a reference insulin on board value associated with the specific time period, calculating a second value that represents an automated insulin on board value associated with the specific time period, and subtracting one of the first and second values from the other, wherein the automated insulin on board value represents at least one insulin delivery automatically specified by the computer-based control unit; determine a future insulin delivery schedule over a period of time based in part on the calculated relative insulin on board value; and configure the insulin delivery mechanism to deliver insulin according to the determined future insulin delivery schedule, wherein the reference insulin on board value may be greater than the automated insulin on board value. - View Dependent Claims (15)
