The patent US12042627B2 describes a portable infusion pump system designed to facilitate the delivery of medicaments to users through a user-friendly interface. The system comprises a portable infusion pump equipped with a reservoir for medicament storage and a pumping mechanism for delivery. A remote control device, which can be a cell phone, is integrated into the system, featuring a touchscreen display and a processor. This device allows users to interactively set up bolus delivery through a dedicated bolus setup page. Users can input numerical values for bolus calculations via touch-selectable objects, which include options for food and blood glucose levels. The system calculates the bolus based on user input and displays the result, enabling the pump to deliver the calculated dosage.

Additionally, the remote control device is designed to enhance user experience by providing features such as a virtual numeric keypad for input, a view calculation object to explain how the bolus was determined, and a stop insulin function that allows users to halt delivery if needed. The interface also includes discrete bolus status indicators that visually represent the delivery process, changing appearance to indicate ongoing delivery. The system is engineered to update the bolus calculation dynamically as users input new values, ensuring accurate and timely medicament delivery. Overall, this patent outlines a comprehensive and interactive approach to managing infusion therapy, emphasizing user control and real-time feedback.
