    Abstract: The insulin to carbohydrate ratio (ICR) and the correction factor for a user of a medicament delivery device may be automatically adjusted. The automatic adjustments may tailor the values to the user's actual insulin needs. Various factors may be examined to determine how to adjust the ICR and the correction factor. The identified factors are weighed with the processor to decide whether to increase or decrease the insulin to carbohydrate ratio or the correction factor. The insulin to carbohydrate ratio or the correction factor for the user are adjusted based on the weights of the identified factors. In addition or in the alternative, automatic adjustments of user-requested insulin boluses may be made to requested dosages and timing of deliveries of the insulin boluses. In some instances, the exemplary embodiments may deliver a percentage of the insulin bolus dosage initially and deliver the remaining percentage after a delay to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia for the user.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the delivery of a co-formulation of insulin and a second drug, such as GLP-1, using an automated insulin delivery system. In a first embodiment, a dose of insulin is calculated by a medication delivery algorithm and a reduction factor is applied to account for the effect of second drug on the user's daily insulin requirement. In a second embodiment of the invention, a total amount of the second drug administered to the user during the past 24 hours is used to modify the correction factor and the insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio used by the medication delivery algorithm to cause a reduction in the insulin delivered to the user to account for the effect of the administration of the second drug portion of the co-formulation.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the delivery of insulin and pramlintide using an automated insulin delivery system. In a first embodiment, a drug delivery system is configured to deliver independent doses of insulin and pramlintide. The system monitors the user's blood glucose level and determines when a meal is been ingested and, in response, delivers the dose of pramlintide which, in turn alters the required delivery of insulin. In the second embodiment, the drug delivery system is configured to deliver a co-formulation of insulin and pramlintide as basal doses. The total amount of pramlintide delivered in a most recent pre-determine period of time, for example, 24 hours, is used to alter the aggressiveness of the algorithm which determines the basal doses of the co-formulation.

    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may address the problem of missing blood glucose concentration readings from a glucose monitor that transmits blood glucose concentration readings over a wireless connection due to problems with the wireless connection. In the exemplary embodiments, an automated insulin delivery (AID) device uses an estimate in place of a missing blood glucose concentration reading in determining a predicted future blood glucose concentration reading for a user. Thus, the AID device is able to operate normally in generating insulin delivery settings despite not receiving a current blood glucose concentration reading for a current cycle. There is no need to suspend delivery of insulin to the user due to the missing blood glucose concentration reading.

    Abstract: Compensation may be provided for the varying accuracy levels of a sensor over time. As a result of the compensation, the medicament delivery device may perform better. The sensor may provide input to a medicament delivery device, and the input may be used to determine a dose of medicament to be delivered to a user by the medicament delivery device. A degree of inaccuracy of sensor values may be determined based on when in the lifetime a sensor value is generated. Glucose level values read by a glucose monitor, such as a CGM, may be directly modified before being used by an automated insulin delivery (AID) control of an insulin delivery device. The compensation for the inaccuracy of the glucose level values from the glucose monitor instead may be achieved by modifying a weight coefficient of a glucose cost component of a cost function in one example.
