Systems, devices and related methods of coordinating insulin management and delivery modes in fasting and non-fasting periods

Abstract

An insulin management method is provided. The method includes providing an insulin delivery device, wherein the insulin delivery device is in the form of an automatic insulin delivery device attachable to a user's body for the duration of a fasting period. The method includes delivering insulin from the insulin delivery device during the fasting period within an overall time period in the form of correction bolus doses of insulin in response to received blood glucose measurements. The insulin delivery device refrains from administering basal insulin at a preset or default rate or in a preset or default pattern. Insulin is received by the user from a non-fasting insulin management modality during a non-fasting period within the overall time period and the non-fasting insulin management modality provides at least one of a basal dose of insulin and bolus doses of insulin. Other methods, devices and systems are also provided.
