SAFETY SYSTEM FOR INSULIN DELIVERY ADVISORY ALGORITHMS
First Claim
1. A medical device control system for controlling the delivery of insulin into a user comprising:
- a blood glucose sensor for sensing at least one physiological parameter,storing means for storing the at least one physiological parameter and delivery rate over time and occurrences of events as historical data,processing means to generate a behavioural pattern for the user based on said historical data,output means for generating an output, said output represents an insulin delivery profile,audio and/or visual display means for presenting an output to the user,input means enabling the user to perform manual input to the control system and a medical device in communication with said control system, said processing means via the display means presents an event forecast and a reminder to the user based on said generated behavioural pattern, said event forecast corresponds an insulin delivery rate profile which initiates on the precondition that the user accepts the event forecast,wherein the control system comprises dynamic safety limits for the insulin profile of the user, whereby said safety limits dynamically surrounds the insulin profile as the insulin delivery level rises and falls, said safety limits thereby has a user defined distance to the insulin profile.

Abstract
A closed loop control system for a medical drug delivery device logs historical data such as drug delivered and corresponding physiological parameters such as blood glucose level. On the basis of the logged historical data, the system calculates an estimated event forecast on which basis the system further calculates the necessary, prudent future drug delivery profile in order to counter delay in the closed loop. The estimated event forecast is presented to the user, the user is thereby given the possibility to accept, reject or adjust the event forecast and the corresponding drug delivery profile. Dynamic and adaptive safety limits to the drug delivery and the physiological parameter can be set by the user and will dynamically follow the drug delivery profile and the event forecast and will further optimize based on the learned behavioural pattern of the user. The user can set the safety level as a percentage of deviation to the drug delivery profile.

9. A method for giving user authorization and limiting a medical device control system;
- the system controlling the delivery of insulin into a user, said system comprising a sensor for sensing one or more physiological parameter(s) of the user, storing means for storing delivery rate over time and at least one physiological parameter as historical data, processing means to generate a behavioral pattern for the user based on said historical data, output means for generating an output, said output represents an insulin delivery profile, audio and/or visual display means for presenting an output to the user, input means enabling the user to perform manual input to the control system and a medical device in communication with said medical device control system, the method comprising;
Introducing one or more safety limits between which the medical device control system is given user authorization to operate. setting the safety limit(s) by user input and/or by the control system, based on historical insulin delivery data and at least one further parameter, dynamically changing at least one safety limit up or down relative to the insulin delivery rate axis or into different event modes, such as high, low, normal and sleeping;
based on event monitoring. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
