    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques, devices and systems that implement and utilize a voice control application and sound chip circuitry to control operation of a wearable drug delivery device. In addition, a wearable drug delivery device equipped with the sound chip circuitry may be operable to play audio clips that may include content for assisting a user with an initial set up of the wearable drug delivery device, providing messages of encouragement, lullabies for pediatric users, and the like. In addition, the voice control application enables users to control delivery of liquid drugs via a wearable drug delivery device hands-free using voice commands and voice confirmations of actions to be taken by an automated insulin delivery application.

    Abstract: Disclosed are an automatic medication delivery system includes a stress detection and response algorithm or application that may operate in cooperation with a medication delivery algorithm or application. Execution of the instructions of the stress detection and response application causes a processor to obtain a respective measurement value related to a physiological condition of a user from one or more sensors. The obtained respective measurement values are evaluated against a respective threshold measurement value. The processor determines, based on the evaluation of the obtained respective measurement values, a degree of stress the user is experiencing. In response to the determination of the degree of stress the user is experiencing, the processor may modify an imminent dosage of a liquid drug to be delivered, a time of delivery of the imminent dosage, or both. A dosage of the liquid drug may be expelled based on the modifying.

    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments may provide a drug delivery device that receives glucose level values for a user (e.g., a diabetic patient) and based on the glucose level values, determines when the user has consumed a meal. In some embodiments, the drug delivery device may calculate an appropriate bolus dose and automatically deliver the drug bolus to the user. In some embodiments, instead of detecting the meal, the user may announce the meal, such as by activating an element on the drug delivery device or on a management device for the drug delivery device. Responsive to the meal announcement, the drug delivery device may calculate the drug bolus dose and deliver the drug bolus. In conjunction with the delivery of the drug bolus, the drug delivery device may relax one or more safety constraints for a relaxation period following the drug bolus delivery so that additional basal drug may be delivered, if needed, under relaxed constraints.

    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments may detect the changed ambient air pressure and may adjust settings for the medicament delivery device to compensate for the changed ambient air pressure. The exemplary embodiments may detect the changed ambient air pressure and may adjust settings for the medicament delivery device to compensate for the changed ambient air pressure. Based on the detection of these events, the medicament delivery device may be switched into a flight mode. In the flight mode, medicament boluses may be reduced to nominal dosages, basal delivery rates may be modified and sample periods for sensors, like glucose monitors, may be shortened to sample sensor values more frequently. The exemplary embodiments may prohibit delivery of medicament during times of changing ambient air pressure to avoid over-delivering or under-delivering the medicament due to the ambient air pressure level.

    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments account for differing needs of a user over the menstrual cycle of the user to better control the blood glucose concentration of the user. The exemplary embodiments may be realized in control systems for medicament delivery devices that deliver medicaments, such as medicaments that regulate blood glucose concentration levels. Examples of such medicaments that regulate blood glucose concentration levels include insulin, glucagon, and glucagon peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists. The exemplary embodiments are able to better tailor the dosages of the medicament delivered to the user with the medicament delivery device to reduce the risk of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia and help reduce blood glucose concentration excursions.
