INFUSION PUMP WITH ADD-ON MODULES
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a pump configured to deliver insulin;
an input; and
a controller communicatively coupled to the pump and the input, wherein the controller is configured to receive via the input information related to physical activity of a user of the apparatus that metabolizes carbohydrates, wherein the controller includes an insulin calculation module to automatically calculate a change in insulin therapy according to the physical activity information, and wherein the controller is configured to initiate the delivery of insulin according to the change in insulin therapy.

Abstract
This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus comprising a pump configured to deliver a fluid, a wireless communication port, a controller, and a housing to enclose the apparatus. The controller is configured to communicate with a second device via the communication port using an open standard wireless communication protocol. The housing includes a mechanical coupling to slidably engage the second device which includes a second wireless communication port. Slidably engaging the second device positions the first and second communication ports opposite each other to allow communication via the first and second communication ports when slidably engaged.
