Abstract
A body-worn medication delivery pump having a patch form factor is provided that includes an integrated plethysmographic module that employs a photoplethysmographic multi-chip package disposed in a frame designed to maintain contact with a wearer's skin during motion, and reduces cross-talk and ingress of stray light, a controller of the pump programmed to adjust its medication delivery algorithms responsive to outputs of the plethysmographic module.
