INSULIN PUMP CONFIGURATION PROGRAMMING INVALID SETTINGS NOTIFICATION AND CORRECTION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for configuring an insulin pump, including the steps of:
- initiating a workflow for setting parameters of an insulin pump configuration file;
receiving a setting of a first parameter;
receiving a user-selected setting of a second parameter that is dependent upon the setting of the first parameter;
determining whether the setting of the second parameter is invalid based on the setting of the first parameter;
permitting the workflow to continue when the setting of the second parameter is invalid;
displaying a confirmation screen; and
after displaying the confirmation screen, permitting the user to correct the setting of one of the first parameter and the second parameter to cause the setting of the second parameter to be valid.

Abstract
An insulin pump configuration programming approach is disclosed that permits setting parameters of pump configuration files to invalid values. An operator may continue with the programming workflow after setting the invalid value. The configuration file including the invalid value may be saved to a memory location of a computing device, but cannot be saved to the pump. Invalid item icons are presented when a parameter is set to an invalid value, and instructions for correcting the invalidity condition are provided when an invalid item icon is hovered over using a pointing device.

10. A computer readable medium tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by a computing device to perform method steps including:
-
prompting an operator to activate a configuration file for controlling the operation of an insulin pump, the configuration file including a first parameter having a first setting and a second parameter having a second setting, the first and second settings being related to one another by a rule; permitting the operator to change the first and second settings in any order, even when a change causes an invalidity condition based on the rule; providing visual feedback to the operator when a change in one of the first and second settings causes an invalidity condition; preventing the operator from saving the activated configuration file to the pump as long as an invalidity condition exists.

11. A system for programming an insulin pump, including:
-
a computing device having a display and a memory location; and software stored in the memory location for execution by the computing device, the software facilitating a workflow for setting parameters of a configuration file that controls operation of the pump, the workflow including the steps of prompting an operator to activate the configuration file; displaying a representation of a first parameter on the display; responding to the operator'"'"'s selection of the first parameter by enabling the operator to change an original value for the first parameter; determining that the changed value is invalid because the changed value violates a rule relating the first parameter to a second parameter; maintaining the changed value in the active configuration file; displaying an invalid item icon on the display in association with the changed value; responding to a request from the operator to save the active configuration file including the changed value by preventing the operator from saving the active configuration file to the pump. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
