Patient monitoring systems and related medical devices and methods are provided. One method involves obtaining historical usage data associated with a patient for a plurality of potential site locations for a medical device, classifying one or more site locations of the plurality of potential site locations into a viable group of potential site locations for the patient based at least in part on the historical usage data, and providing, at a client device, graphical indicia of the one or more site locations classified into the viable group of potential site locations.

A flexible tubing for a cannula has a hollow tubing body having a length dimension from a first end to a second end, and an outer diameter of no more than 0.9 mm. The tubing body has a section of enhanced flexibility of a greater flexibility than one or more other sections of the tubing body. The section of enhanced flexibility is spaced from the first end of the tubing body by a distance D, where D is within a range of 3.0 mm to 5.0 mm for a flexible tubing having a length of about 9.0 mm, and where D is within a range of 1.0 mm to 2.9 mm for a flexible tubing having a length of about 6.0 mm.

Flexible cannula and process

A connector interface system includes a cap to connect to a reservoir to form a reservoir/cap unit for installation into an infusion pump device. The cap has at least one receptacle for receiving one or more detectable features comprising at least one disc-shaped member, for detection by at least one sensor element on the infusion pump device when the reservoir of the reservoir/cap unit is received in a reservoir receptacle of the infusion pump device. The at least one detectable feature has at least one detectable parameter that is associated with one or more characteristics of the cap, the reservoir, the infusion pump device, a cannula associated with the cap or a tubing connected between the cap and the cannula.
