Abstract

One or more embodiments of the disclosure relate, generally, to a system to assist with manual dosing of insulin. Such a system may include a glucose sensor system, a reusable insulin dosing detector, and a recommendation system. The reusable insulin dosing detector may be configured to be reversibly connectable to a disposable component that may form part of an insulin manual delivery assembly. The reusable insulin dosing detector may be configured to detect insulin delivery associated with the insulin manual delivery assembly. The recommendation system may be configured to analyze blood glucose data and determine adjustments to insulin therapy settings.
