Insulin pump having a food database
First Claim
1. An insulin pump comprising:
- a pump mechanism;
a memory configured to store a plurality of food entries in a food database;
a programmable circuit arranged to control the pump mechanism and operatively connected to the memory, the programmable circuit programmed to;
accept entry of one or more food entries into the food database;
associate each of the one or more food entries with a carbohydrate value;
prompt selection of one or more food entries; and
calculate a meal bolus based on the one or more food entries.

Abstract
A method for calculating a meal bolus in an insulin pump and an insulin pump are disclosed. The insulin pump includes a pump mechanism and a memory configured to store a plurality of food entries in a food database. The insulin pump also includes a programmable circuit arranged to control the pump mechanism and operatively connected to the memory. The programmable circuit is programmed to accept entry of one or more food entries into the food database. The programmable circuit is also programmed to associate each of the one or more food entries with a carbohydrate value. The programmable circuit is programmed to prompt selection of one or more food entries. The programmable circuit is further programmed to calculate a meal bolus based on the one or more food entries.
