Zusammenfassung: | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REMOTELY CONTROLLING MEDICATION INFUSION AND ANALYTE MONTTORING Devices, systems and methods are provided for remotely controlling medication delivery to a patient by means of a medication infusion pump, such as subcutaneous infusion pump, and for remotely controlling the monitoring of one or more physiological fluid analytes such as by a percutaneous measurement device. The systems of the present invention include a medication infusion pump and a hand-held "fob" for the remote control of the infusion pump and/or measurement device. In addition to remotely controlling the insulin pump and the measurement device, the fob provides for the consolidation of blood chemistry data and insulin delivery data over a period of time and maintains such consolidated data for immediate and later retrieval by the user or a physician. The methods of the present invention allow a user to customize and optimize an insulin bolus delivery protocol, i.e., bolus volume and delivery duration, by factoring in or compensating for the user's current or substantially current blood chemistry evaluation and/or the user's anticipated and/or actual carbohydrate intake. |
