Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems, devices/apparatuses and methods for assessing a residual insulin value for a user/patient. Such embodiments may be implemented by selecting a first value corresponding to a duration of insulin action; selecting a second value corresponding to a lock out time duration, selecting a first time period beginning at a time point T0 minus the first value and ending at the time point T0 minus the second value, selecting one or more boluses delivered during the first time period; for each of the one or more boluses selecting a corresponding residual insulin value estimated at the time point T0, computing the cumulative residual insulin value by summation of the corresponding residual insulin values.

48. A method for delivering an adjusted insulin bolus into a body of a patient comprising:
-
selecting a first time corresponding to a duration of insulin action; selecting a second time corresponding to a lock out time duration; receiving input for a selection of a first time period beginning at a time point T0 minus the first time and ending at the time point T0 minus the second time; receiving input for a selection of one or more boluses delivered during the first time period; receiving input for a selection of a corresponding residual insulin value estimated at the time point T0 for each of the one or more boluses; computing a cumulative residual insulin value based on the corresponding residual insulin values; and computing an adjusted insulin bolus based on the cumulative residual insulin value. - View Dependent Claims (49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66)

67. A system for determining and delivering an adjusted insulin bolus into a body of a patient comprising:
-
a fluid dispensing unit comprising one or more integrally connected housings containing a pump and a reservoir, a processor, the processor having a bolus recommendation application operating thereon configured for carrying out the following steps; receiving a first time corresponding to a duration of insulin action; receiving a second time corresponding to a lock out time duration; receiving a first time period beginning at a time point T0 minus the first time and ending at the time point T0 minus the second time; receiving a selection of a plurality of boluses delivered during the first time period; receiving a selection of a corresponding residual insulin value estimated at the time point T0 for each of the boluses; computing a cumulative residual insulin value based on the corresponding residual insulin values; and computing an adjusted insulin bolus based on the cumulative residual insulin value, wherein the pump is configured for dispensing the computed adjusted insulin bolus from the reservoir into a body of a user.
