Abstract

An infusion pump system is disclosed. The infusion pump system includes an infusion pump and a controller device in wireless communication with the infusion pump, wherein the controller including instructions for controlling the infusion pump, wherein the instructions may be synchronized with a secure web portal.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An infusion pump system comprising:
an infusion pump; and
a controller device to collect data and in wireless communication with the infusion pump,
wherein the controller device in communication with a security monitoring service, wherein the security monitoring service to collect the data from the controller device and contacts the controller device, and
wherein if an acknowledgement of the security monitoring service contact is not made on the controller the security monitoring service contacts and sends the data to an emergency contact.

2. The infusion pump system of claim 1 wherein the controller device instructs the infusion pump, and wherein the controller device synchronizes instructions with the security monitoring service.

3. The infusion pump system of claim 1 wherein the infusion pump and the controller device are paired using near field communication.

4. The infusion pump system of claim 1 further comprising a continuous glucose monitor system comprising a transmitter wherein the transmitter in wireless communication with the controller device.

5. The infusion pump system of claim 1 further comprising a blood glucose meter wherein the blood glucose meter in wireless communication with the controller device.

6. The infusion pump system of claim 1 further comprising wireless communication wherein the wireless communication is radio frequency communication.

7. The infusion pump system of claim 1 wherein the controller further comprising at least one accelerometer.

8. The infusion pump system of claim 1 wherein the data is pump data.

9. The infusion pump system of claim 1 wherein the data is continuous glucose monitor data.

10. A method for communication between an infusion pump and a controller comprising:
providing an infusion pump; and
providing a controller device to collect data and in wireless communication with the infusion pump, wherein the controller in communication with a security monitoring service,
wherein the security monitoring service collects the data from the controller device and contacts the controller, and
wherein if an acknowledgement of the security monitoring service contact is not made on the controller device, the security monitoring service contacting and sending the data to an emergency contact.

11. The method of claim 10 further comprising the controller device instructing the infusion pump, and the controller device synchronizing the instructions with the security monitoring service.

12. The method of claim 10 further comprising parring the controller device and the infusion pump using near field communication.

13. The method of claim 10 further comprising providing a continuous glucose monitor system comprising a transmitter, the transmitter wirelessly communicating with the controller device.

14. The method of claim 10 further comprising providing a blood glucose meter, the blood glucose meter wirelessly communicating with the controller device.

15. The method of claim 10 further comprising providing at least one accelerometer.

16. The method of claim 10 wherein the data is pump data.

17. The method of claim 10 wherein the data is continuous glucose monitor data.
