1. A portable insulin pump, comprising:
- a graphical user interface;
a receiver adapted to receive information from a continuous glucose monitor; and
a processor functionally linked to the receiver to obtain the information from the continuous glucose monitor and to the graphical user interface to control display of information on the graphical user interface, wherein the processor is configured to automatically display a startup screen on the graphical user interface when the graphical user interface is activated from an inactive condition, the startup screen including;
a current glucose level of a user based off of the information received from the continuous glucose monitor;
historical data relating to the glucose level of the user based off of the information received from the continuous glucose monitor; and
an estimate of the amount of un-metabolized insulin remaining in the user'"'"'s body.

Abstract
A portable insulin pump can integrate and display data from a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to allow a user to more readily determine whether any interaction with the pump is necessary. Data from the CGM can automatically be transmitted to the pump and can be displayed for user analysis or automatically analyzed to present recommendations to the user based on combined data from the CGM and the pump.

18. A portable insulin pump, comprising:
-
a user interface; a receiver adapted to receive information related to a glucose level of a user from a continuous glucose monitor; and a processor functionally linked to the receiver to obtain the information from the continuous glucose monitor and to the user interface to control display of information on the user interface, wherein the processor is configured to; receive a current blood glucose level of the user from the continuous glucose monitor; determine whether the current blood glucose level is above a threshold; and if the current blood glucose level is above the threshold, automatically calculate a bolus of insulin to bring the user'"'"'s blood glucose level below the threshold and present the bolus to the user on the user interface as a recommended correction bolus. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
