Abstract
A small, portable infusion device for ambulatory use by a patient includes an audible enunciator integrated circuit chip. This chip is controlled by a microprocessor to provide output data to an operator, and to work in place of, or in association with a visual output display, such as an LCD screen. The audible data output permits a remote clinician to monitor operation of the pump, and diagnose and correct problems with the pump's operation.
