    Abstract: Infusion devices, systems, and related operating methods are provided. A method of detecting an anomalous condition with respect to a fluid path based on operation of an actuation arrangement configured to deliver fluid via the fluid path involves providing input power to the actuation arrangement to produce actuation of the actuation arrangement, identifying an active amount of actuation of the actuation arrangement concurrent to the input power being provided to the actuation arrangement, disabling the input power to the actuation arrangement, identifying a passive amount of actuation of the actuation arrangement after disabling the input power to the actuation arrangement, and detecting the anomalous condition based on a relationship between the active amount and the passive amount.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for automatically configuring a first medical device. In accordance with the methods and the systems, a computing system can obtain prescription information for a patient. The prescription information comprises a device prescription. The computing system can transform the prescription information into first configuration data comprising therapy settings for a first medical device referenced by the device prescription. The computing system can cause automatic configuration of the first medical device based on communicating the first configuration data to the first medical device.

    Abstract: A fluid infusion device and related operating methods are disclosed. The fluid infusion device has a housing, a fluid pump mechanism, a transcutaneous conduit assembly having a fluid conduit coupled to the pump mechanism, and an insertion mechanism for inserting the conduit into the body. An exemplary method begins by detecting a first installation of a fluid cartridge module in the housing, wherein the detecting occurs after the housing has been affixed to the body. In response to the detecting, the operating method automatically activates the insertion mechanism to insert the fluid conduit into the body.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a connection interface between a reservoir or syringe, infusion set tubing, and an infusion pump is provided. The reservoir, a base and a cap are connected to form an integrated unit that is capable of being inserted and secured in an infusion pump housing. The cap and the infusion pump are each provided with at least one sensor or at least one detectable feature, arranged to interact with at least one corresponding detectable feature or sensor on the other of the cap and infusion pump device, to detect one or more of the presence, position or other characteristic of the cap when the cap is aligned or coupled with the infusion pump housing. The detectable feature and sensor may be magnetic, RF, mechanical, optical or any combination.
