Adhesive and peripheral systems and methods for medical devices
First Claim
1. A delivery device for delivering an infusion medium to a user, the device comprising:
- a disposable housing assembly adapted to be secured to a user'"'"'s skin;
a reservoir having an interior for containing a fluidic medium, the reservoir having an outlet port and being operatively coupled to a pumping assembly to selectively drive fluid out the outlet port from the reservoir interior;
a base portion comprising the reservoir, the base portion having a reservoir cavity, and a fluid path, the reservoir cavity comprising the outlet port and a septum, the fluid path comprising a fluid channel from the outlet port to a cannula port;
at least one flexible membrane portion attached onto the base portion and forming a top of the reservoir cavity and a top of the fluid channel; and
a tubing connected to the base portion at the cannula port, the tubing in fluid communication with the reservoir cavity; and
a needle insertion device for inserting a cannula into the user'"'"'s skin, the needle insertion device comprising an introduction needle for movement between a retracted position and an extended position;
wherein the disposable housing assembly has a passage through which the introduction needle extends, andwherein the cannula has a central passage through which the introduction needle extends.

Abstract
A repeater system may control a pump by using a repeater and a user interface. An adhesive patch system may be used for affixing a pump or other object to a human body. Such an adhesive patch system may include two sets of adhesive members, each member including an adhesive material on at least one side so as to attach to the body. The members of the first set are spaced to allow the members of the second set to attach to the body in spaces provided between the members of the first set, and the members of the second set are spaced to allow members of the first set to detach from the body without detaching the members of the second set. Also, fill stations and base stations are provided for personal pump systems.
