Patent Images
1. A system for delivering fluid to and sensing concentration levels of an analyte in a body of a patient, comprising:
- a dispensing apparatus configured to infuse fluid into the body of the patient; and
a sensing apparatus configured to be in communication with said dispensing apparatus and further configured to detect a concentration level of the analyte in the body of the patient;
wherein the dispensing apparatus and the sensing apparatus share a single fluid reservoir, a single pump, and a single cannula with one single exit port; and
wherein the system further comprises a processor-controller apparatus configured to receive input data from the sensing apparatus and, after processing the input data, authorize the dispensing apparatus to dispense fluid based on the detected level of the analyte in the body of the patient and an external input.
