Abstract
Infusion devices, systems, and related operating methods are provided. A method of detecting an anomalous condition with respect to a fluid path involves providing energy to an actuation arrangement to produce actuation, wherein the actuation arrangement is coupled to a plunger configured to deliver fluid via the fluid path, monitoring an orientation of the actuation arrangement using a sensing arrangement, and detecting an anomalous condition based on the orientation of the actuation arrangement.
