Display for pump
An apparatus comprising a pump configured to deliver insulin, a processor, and a user interface including a color display. Color on the display can be used to bring a user's attention to a change in status of the device or a detected change in status of the patient.
1. An ambulatory infusion pump system, comprising:
a user interface including a color display configured to display information to a user in a plurality of colors;
a memory configured to store parameters relating to treatment of the user with an ambulatory infusion pump, including one or more thresholds related to glucose levels of the user; and
a processor configured to control the information displayed on the color display, the processor further configured to:
receive information relating to glucose levels of the user;
display information relating to a recent glucose level of the user on a portion of the display in a first color;
compare the information relating to glucose levels of the user to the one or more thresholds related to glucose levels of the user; and
changing the information relating to a recent glucose level of the user on the portion of the color display from the first color to a second color at the time when a glucose level of the user passes one of the one or more thresholds related to glucose levels of the user, and
wherein the processor is further configured to alter a color of a portion of the color display based on a change in status of the ambulatory infusion pump.
2. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 1 , further comprising an ambulatory infusion pump.
3. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 2 , wherein the user interface is part of the ambulatory infusion pump.
4. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 2 , wherein the user interface is part of a device that is separate from the ambulatory infusion pump.
5. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 1 , wherein comparing the information relating to glucose levels of the user to the one or more thresholds related to glucose levels of the user includes comparing glucose levels of the user to a high glucose threshold and to a low glucose threshold.
6. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to alter the color of the portion of the color display when the glucose level of the user is higher than the high glucose threshold.
7. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to alter the color of the portion of the color display when the glucose level of the user is lower than the low glucose threshold.
8. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 1 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes altering a color of text on the color display.
9. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 1 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes altering a color of a portion of a background of the color display.
10. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 1 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes displaying a color flashing indicator.
11. An ambulatory infusion pump system, comprising:
a user interface including a color display configured to display information to a user in a plurality of colors;
a memory configured to store parameters relating to treatment of the user with an ambulatory infusion pump; and
a processor configured to control the information displayed on the color display, the processor further configured to:
receive information relating to a clinical status of the user;
display information relating to the clinical status of the user on a portion of the color display in a first color;
compare the information relating to the clinical status of the user to the parameters relating to treatment of the user; and
changing the portion of the color display from the first color to a second color at the time of a change in the clinical status of the user, wherein the processor is further configured to alter a color of a portion of the color display based on a change in status of the ambulatory infusion pump.
12. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , further comprising an ambulatory infusion pump.
13. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 12 , wherein the user interface is part of the ambulatory infusion pump.
14. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 12 , wherein the user interface is part of a device that is separate from the ambulatory infusion pump.
15. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein the change in clinical status of the user is a glucose level exceeding a high glucose threshold or below a low glucose threshold.
16. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein the change in clinical status of the user relates to an amount of active insulin in the user's body.
17. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes altering a color of text on the color display.
18. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes altering a color of a portion of a background of the color display.
19. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein altering the color of the portion of the color display includes displaying a color flashing indicator.
20. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein the change in status of the ambulatory infusion pump relates to a level of insulin in the ambulatory infusion pump.
21. The ambulatory infusion pump system of claim 11 , wherein the change in status of the ambulatory infusion pump relates to a battery level of the ambulatory infusion pump.
