Abstract:
A wearable infusion pump assembly. The wearable infusion pump assembly includes a reservoir for receiving an infusible fluid, and an externa! infusion set configured to deliver the infusible fluid to a user. A fluid delivery system is configured to deliver the infusible fluid from the reservoir to the external infusion set. The fluid delivery system includes a volume sensor assembly, and a pump assembly for extracting a quantity of infusible fluid from {lie reservoir and providing the quantity of infusible fluid to the volume sensor assembly- The volume sensor assembly is configured to determine the volume of at least a portion of the quantity of fluid. The fluid delivery system also includes at least one optical sensor assembly, a first valve assembly configured to selectively isolate the pump assembly from the reservoir. The fluid delivery system further includes a second valve assembly configured to selectively isolate the volume sensor assembly from the external infusion set. The at least one optica! sensor assembly is configured to sense the movement of the pump assembly.
Abstract:
A system for control of a prosthetic device includes at least one Inertial Measurement Unit (7096) detecting orientation of a user's foot. The at least one Inertial Measurement Unit is in communication with a device module (7017) configured to command at least one actuator (7013) of a prosthetic device. The at least one Inertial Measurement unit sends output signals related to orientation of the user's foot to the device module and the device module controls the at least one actuator of the prosthetic device based on the signals from the at least one Inertial Measurement Unit.
Abstract:
A system is disclosed. The system includes a fill adapter device (700) including a heat exchanger which includes a heating element (706) and a fluid pathway (712), the fluid pathway fluidly connected to a filling needle input (714), whereby fluid enters the heat exchanger through the filling needle input and flows through the fluid pathway and whereby the fluid is heated by the heating element. The system also includes a reservoir (704) including a plunger (708) and a plunger rod and a filling needle (710) configured to be removably attached to the reservoir, wherein the fill adapter is configured to be attached to a vial (702) of fluid and wherein fluid from the vial flows through the fluid pathway and is heated and loaded into the reservoir through the filling needle.
