Embodiment Construction
[0090]Certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to systems, methods, and devices for controlling physiological glucose concentrations in a closed-loop system suitable for use with various types of drugs (e.g., insulin, pramlintide, glucagon )use together.
[0091] Pramlintide is an injectable drug and is an analog of amylin. Amylin is a hormone co-secreted by the pancreas of healthy individuals with insulin, but is deficient in people with type 1 diabetes. Co-injection of pramlintide and insulin at mealtimes has been shown to improve glycemic control by delaying gastric emptying, inhibiting nutrient-stimulated glucagon secretion, and increasing satiety. In addition, co-injection of pramlintide and insulin has been found to increase the time a patient spends in the target glucose range (eg, 3.9-10.0 mmol / L) as compared to insulin injection alone, as well as during the day and night without increasing Reduced glucose variability in case of hypoglycemic risk.
