Medical devices and related augmented reality systems and methods are provided. A method of operating an infusion device involves analyzing one or more images captured by an imaging device to identify image content indicative of an activity capable of influencing the physiological condition of the patient and in response to identifying the activity based at least in part on the one or more images, automatically adjusting delivery of the fluid to the patient based at least in part on the activity. An expected nutritional characteristic for a meal is determined based at least in part on the image content, and a delivery adjustment for delivering the fluid is determined based on the expected nutritional characteristic. A graphical indication of the delivery adjustment may also be provided using augmented reality.

Proactive image-based infusion device delivery adjustments

Medical devices and related augmented reality systems and methods are provided. A method of providing guidance to a patient using an electronic device having an imaging device associated therewith involves analyzing one or more images captured by the imaging device to identify image content indicative of a potential activity for the patient, determining, by a control system associated with the electronic device, one or more attributes for the potential activity, determining, by the control system, a predicted physiological response by the patient to the potential activity based at least in part on the one or more attributes, and providing, on a display associated with the electronic device, an augmented reality graphical user interface including a graphical indication influenced by the predicted physiological response.

Proactive patient guidance using augmented reality

A fluid infusion system as described herein includes a number of local 'body network' devices, such as an infusion pump, a handheld monitor or controller, a physiological sensor, and a bedside or hospital monitor. The body network devices can be configured to support communication of status data, physiological information, alerts, control signals, and other information between one another. In addition, the body network devices can be configured to support networked communication of status data, physiological information, alerts, control signals, and other information between the body network devices and 'external' devices, systems, or communication networks. Such external communication allows the infusion system to be extended beyond the traditional short-range user environment.
