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 in wireless communication with the infusion pump, wherein the controller device instructs the infusion pump, and wherein the controller device synchronizes the instructions with a secure web portal,
wherein the controller in communication with a security monitoring service,
wherein the security monitoring service contacts the controller,
wherein if an acknowledgement of the security monitoring service contact is not made the security monitoring service contacts an emergency contact, and
wherein the infusion pump and the controller device are paired using near field communication.

2. 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.

3. 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.

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

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

6. A medical device system comprising:
a first medical device; and
a second medical device in wireless communication with the first medical device, wherein the second medical device instructs the first medical device and wherein the second medical device synchronizes the instructions with a secure web portal,
wherein the first medical device and second medical device are paired using near field communication,
wherein the controller in communication with a security monitoring service,
wherein the security monitoring service contacts the controller, and
wherein if an acknowledgement of the security monitoring service contact is not made the secure web portal contacts an emergency contact.

7. The medical device system of claim 6 wherein the first medical device is an infusion pump and the second medical device is a controller device.

8. The infusion pump system of claim 7 wherein the infusion pump and the controller device are paired using near field communication.

9. The infusion pump system of claim 8 wherein the infusion pump and the controller device are paired using near field communication.
