Abstract

A system for configuring an insulin pump comprising: a computing device configured to receive a source device and a destination device; the source device being configured to communicate with the computing device, wherein the source device includes a source configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable source parameters; the destination device being configured to communicate with the computing device, wherein the destination device includes a destination configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable destination parameters; and the computing device being configured to determine whether a parameter mismatch occurred based on a comparison between the source configuration file and the destination configuration file; and to copies values associated with each of the plurality of source parameters to each of the plurality of destination parameters based on i) the determination of whether a parameter mismatch occurred and ii) the comparison between the source configuration file and the destination configuration file.

Claims

1. A system for configuring an insulin pump comprising:

a source device having an associated source configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable source parameters;

a destination device having an associated destination configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable destination parameters; and

a computing device comprising a copy settings module configured to;

be selectively in communication with the source device and the destination device,

in response to receiving a first selection from an operator, retrieve the source configuration file,

in response to receiving a second selection from the operator, retrieve the destination configuration file,

identify parameter mismatches based on a comparison between each of the source parameters and each of the destination parameters,

in response to identifying a parameter mismatch, display, on an operator viewable screen, a dialog box indicating at least one mismatched source parameter and a corresponding destination parameter,

receive, via the dialog box, a source parameter conversion value, and

copy values associated with each of the source parameters to corresponding destination parameters based on the parameter mismatches.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein the copy settings module identifies a parameter mismatch when, based on the comparison between each of the source parameters and each of the destination parameters, at least one source parameter does not match a corresponding destination parameter.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein the copy settings module copies the source parameter conversion value to the destination parameter corresponding to the at least one source parameter.

4. The system of claim 1 wherein the operator selects the source device from a plurality of devices connected to the computing device.

5. The system of claim 4 wherein the copy settings module instructs the operator to place the source device in a communication mode.

6. The system of claim 5 wherein the copy settings module retrieves the source configuration file in response to the source device being placed in the communication mode.

7. The system of claim 1 wherein the operator selects the destination device from a plurality of devices connected to the computing device.

8. The system of claim 7 wherein the copy settings module instructs the operator to place the destination device in a communication mode.

9. The system of claim 8 wherein the copy settings module retrieves the destination configuration file in response to the destination device being placed in the communication mode.

10. A method for configuring an insulin pump comprising:

receiving a source device selection from an operator;

identifying a source device based on the source device selection, the source device having an associated source configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable source parameters;

receiving a destination device selection from the operator;

identifying a destination device based on the destination device selection, the destination device having an associated destination configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable destination parameters;

selectively communicating with the source device and the destination device;

retrieving, in response to receiving the source device selection, the source configuration file;

retrieving, in response to receiving the destination device selection, the destination configuration file;

comparing each of the source parameters to each of the destination parameters;

identifying parameter mismatches based on the comparison between each of the source parameters and each of the destination parameters;

in response to identifying a parameter mismatch, display, on an operator viewable screen, a dialog box indicating at least one mismatched source parameter and corresponding destination parameter;

receiving, via the dialog box, a source parameter conversion value; and

copying values associated with each of the source parameters to corresponding destination parameters based on the parameter mismatches.

11. The method of claim 10 further comprising identifying a parameter mismatch when, based on the comparison between each of the source parameters and each of the destination parameters, at least one source parameter does not match a corresponding destination parameter.

12. The method of claim 10 further comprising copying the source parameter conversion value to the destination parameter corresponding to the at least one source parameter.

13. The method of claim 10 further comprising instructing the operator to place the source device in a communication mode.

14. The method of claim 13 further comprising retrieving the source configuration file in response to the source device being placed in the communication mode.

15. The method of claim 10 further comprising instructing the operator to place the destination device in a communication mode.

16. The method of claim 15 further comprising retrieving the destination configuration file in response to the destination device being placed in the communication mode.

17. A system for configuring an insulin pump comprising:

a source infusion pump having an associated source configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable source parameters;

a destination infusion pump having an associated destination configuration file comprising a plurality of configurable destination parameters; and

a computing device comprising a copy settings module configured to;

be selectively in communication with the source infusion pump and the destination infusion pump,

in response to receiving a first selection from an operator, retrieve the source configuration file,

in response to receiving a second selection from the operator, retrieve the destination configuration file,

identify parameter mismatches based on a comparison between each of the source parameters and each of the destination parameters,

in response to identifying a parameter mismatch, display, on an operator viewable screen, a dialog box indicating at least one mismatched source parameter and a corresponding destination parameter,

receive, via the dialog box, a source parameter conversion value, and

copy values associated with each of the source parameters to corresponding destination parameters based on the parameter mismatches.

18. The system of claim 17 wherein the copy settings module copies the source parameter conversion value to the destination parameter corresponding to the at least one source parameter.

19. The system of claim 17, wherein the copy settings module is configured to:

instruct the operator to place the source infusion pump in a communication mode, and

retrieve the source configuration file in response to the source infusion pump being placed in the communication mode.

20. The system of claim 17, wherein the copy settings module is configured to:

instruct the operator to place the destination infusion pump in a communication mode, and

retrieve the destination configuration file in response to the destination infusion pump being placed in the communication mode.
