    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide medicament delivery devices that use cost functions in their control systems to determine medicament dosages. The cost function may have a medicament cost component and a performance cost component. The exemplary embodiments may use cost functions having medicament cost components that scale asymmetrically for different ranges of inputs (i.e., different candidate medicament dosages). The variance in scaling for different input ranges provides added flexibility to tailor the medicament cost component to the user and thus provide better management of medicament delivery to the user and better conformance to a performance target. The exemplary embodiments may use a cost function that has a medicament cost component (such as an insulin cost component) of zero for candidate dosages for a range of candidate dosages (e.g., below a reference dosage).

    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments attempt to identify impending hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia and take measures to prevent the hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. Exemplary embodiments may provide a drug delivery system for delivering insulin and glucagon as needed by a user of the drug delivery system. The drug delivery system may deploy a control system that controls the automated delivery of insulin and glucagon to a patient by the drug delivery system. The control system seeks among other goals to avoid the user experiencing hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The control system may employ a clinical decision support algorithm as is described below to control delivery of insulin and glucagon to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia and to provide alerts to the user when needed. The control system assesses whether the drug delivery system can respond enough to avoid hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia and generates alerts when manual action is needed to avoid hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a system, methods and computer-readable medium products that provide safety constraints for an insulin-delivery management program. Various examples provide safety constraints for a control algorithm-based drug delivery system that provides automatic delivery of a drug based on sensor input. Glucose measurement values may be received at regular time intervals from a sensor. A processor may predict future glucose values based on prior glucose measurement values. The safety constraints assist in safe operation of the drug delivery system during various operational scenarios. In some examples, predicted future glucose values may be used to implement safety constraints that mitigate under-delivery or over-delivery of the drug while not overly burdening the user of the drug delivery system and without sacrificing performance of the drug delivery system. Other safety constraints are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a device, a computer-readable medium, and techniques that provide an onboarding process and an adaptivity process for a drug delivery device. A processor executing an onboarding process determines whether a history of delivered insulin to a user meets certain sufficiency requirements. The onboarding process enables a processor to cause the drug delivery device to administer doses of insulin to a user according to an initial total daily insulin dose calculation that is determined based on the sufficiency of the insulin delivery history. The initial total daily insulin may be adapted according to the adaptivity process as new insulin delivery is collected. The insulin delivery history, when sufficient, may be used to set total daily insulin dosages that enable automated insulin delivery upon replacement of a drug delivery device. The adaptivity process may be implemented to modify an initial insulin delivery doses to provide adapted insulin delivery doses.
