Patent Images
1. A wearable infusion pump system, comprising:
- a pump device including a drive system to dispense a medicine to a user;
an activity sensor to detect signals indicative of an activity level of the user; and
a controller to activate the drive system to dispense the medicine to the user based on a medicine dispensing schedule, the controller to query the user to indicate whether a detected activity level of the user represents an actual activity level of the user and to alter the medicine dispensing schedule based on the user-indicated activity level.

Abstract
Some embodiments of a wearable infusion pump system can include a pump device having a drive system to dispense a medicine to a user, an activity sensor that detects a possible change in an activity level of the user, and a controller to activate the drive system to dispense the medicine to the user. The controller device can query the user to indicate whether a detected activity level of the user represents an actual change in the activity level of the user. The controller device can alter the medicine dispensing schedule based on the user indicated changes in activity level.

9. A wearable infusion pump system, comprising:
-
a wearable pump device including a drive system to dispense a medicine to a user; an activity sensor to detect signals indicative of an activity level of the user; and control circuitry to activate the drive system of the wearable pump device to dispense the medicine to the user based on a medicine dispensing schedule, the control circuitry being electrically connected to the activity sensor and electrically connected to a user interface that, in response an activity level detected by the activity sensor, queries the user to confirm whether the detected activity level of the user represents an actual activity level of the user, wherein the control circuitry is configured to decrease the dispensation of medicine in response to confirmation of the detected activity level. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

15. A portable and wearable insulin pump system, comprising:
-
a disposable and non-reusable pump device having a drive system to dispense insulin, the pump device defining a space to receive an insulin cartridge; a reusable controller device removably attached to the pump device, the controller device having control circuitry that communicates control signals to the drive system to dispense insulin at a dispensation rate when the controller device removably attached to the pump device, the controller device including a user interface; and an activity sensor arranged in the reusable controller and electrically connected to the control circuitry, the activity sensor providing signals indicative of activity levels of the user; wherein the controller device queries the user to indicate whether a detected activity level of the user represents an actual change in the activity level of the user and the controller device alters the medicine dispensing schedule based on the user-indicated activity level. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
