Abstract

The exemplary embodiments may detect the changed ambient air pressure and may adjust settings for the medicament delivery device to compensate for the changed ambient air pressure. The exemplary embodiments may detect the changed ambient air pressure and may adjust settings for the medicament delivery device to compensate for the changed ambient air pressure. Based on the detection of these events, the medicament delivery device may be switched into a flight mode. In the flight mode, medicament boluses may be reduced to nominal dosages, basal delivery rates may be modified and sample periods for sensors, like glucose monitors, may be shortened to sample sensor values more frequently. The exemplary embodiments may prohibit delivery of medicament during times of changing ambient air pressure to avoid over-delivering or under-delivering the medicament due to the ambient air pressure level.
