Abstract
A system includes one or more processors, and one or more processor-readable storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause performance of: switching operation of an infusion device from a first mode of fluid delivery to a second mode of fluid delivery, the first mode being different from the second mode, receiving user input after the infusion device is operating in the second mode, the user input being indicative of whether the infusion device should remain operating in the second mode or transition from the second mode to a different mode, and operating the infusion device in a manner that is influenced by the user input.
Claims (40)
1 . A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more processor-readable storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause performance of:
switching operation of an infusion device from a first mode of fluid delivery to a second mode of fluid delivery, the first mode being different from the second mode;
receiving user input after the infusion device is operating in the second mode, the user input being indicative of whether the infusion device should remain operating in the second mode or transition from the second mode to a different mode; and
operating the infusion device in a manner that is influenced by the user input.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein switching operation of the infusion device from the first mode to the second mode is performed in response to detecting an alert condition based on obtaining, from a sensing arrangement, a sensor value for a physiological condition of a user.
3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
transitioning from the second mode to the first mode upon determining that the sensor value corresponds to an updated glucose reference value.
4 . The system of claim 2 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
identifying an anomalous condition by determining the sensor value and an updated glucose reference value differ by more than a threshold amount; and
operating the infusion device in an open-loop mode.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user input is a response to a user notification provided in accordance with user-specific alert configuration information.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first mode corresponds to a closed-loop mode.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the second mode corresponds to a mode in which a pre-programmed basal rate is delivered.
8 . A processor-implemented method comprising:
switching operation of an infusion device from a first mode of fluid delivery to a second mode of fluid delivery, the first mode being different from the second mode;
receiving user input after the infusion device is operating in the second mode, the user input being indicative of whether the infusion device should remain operating in the second mode or transition from the second mode to a different mode; and
operating the infusion device in a manner that is influenced by the user input.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein switching operation of the infusion device from the first mode to the second mode is performed in response to detecting an alert condition based on obtaining, from a sensing arrangement, a sensor value for a physiological condition of a user.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
transitioning from the second mode to the first mode upon determining that the sensor value corresponds to an updated glucose reference value.
11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
identifying an anomalous condition by determining the sensor value and an updated glucose reference value differ by more than a threshold amount; and
operating the infusion device in an open-loop mode.
12 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the user input is a response to a user notification provided in accordance with user-specific alert configuration information.
13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the first mode corresponds to a closed-loop mode.
14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the second mode corresponds to a mode in which a pre-programmed basal rate is delivered.
15 . One or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause performance of:
switching operation of an infusion device from a first mode of fluid delivery to a second mode of fluid delivery, the first mode being different from the second mode;
receiving user input after the infusion device is operating in the second mode, the user input being indicative of whether the infusion device should remain operating in the second mode or transition from the second mode to a different mode; and
operating the infusion device in a manner that is influenced by the user input.
16 . The one or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein switching operation of the infusion device from the first mode to the second mode is performed in response to detecting an alert condition based on obtaining, from a sensing arrangement, a sensor value for a physiological condition of a user.
17 . The one or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media of claim 16 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
transitioning from the second mode to the first mode upon determining that the sensor value corresponds to an updated glucose reference value.
18 . The one or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media of claim 16 , wherein operating the infusion device in the manner that is influenced by the user input comprises:
identifying an anomalous condition by determining the sensor value and an updated glucose reference value differ by more than a threshold amount; and
operating the infusion device in an open-loop mode.
19 . The one or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the user input is a response to a user notification provided in accordance with user-specific alert configuration information.
20 . The one or more non-transitory processor-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the first mode corresponds to a closed-loop mode.
