SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TRANSITIONING FROM AUTOMATED INSULIN DELIVERY

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods for transitioning from automated closed loop insulin delivery to open loop insulin therapy. When closed loop control is terminated, rather than immediately transitioning from the closed loop rate at termination to a preprogrammed open loop rate, the system can instead gradually transition over time to the preprogrammed open loop rate. This gradual transition provides a safer transition to open loop therapy that reduces the risk of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia.
