YpsoPump (myLife Loop)
Topics
Features
- The YpsoPump is a small, touchscreen pump with symbols (vs words) using glass reservoirs, to allow prefilling.
- When used with the Dexcom glucose sensor and the CamAPS FX app (Android) it is an AID insulin pump with an indication for use in pregnancy.
- Targets 4.4 - 11.1 mmol/L
- The CAM APS FX algorithm determines basal and ISF; user adjusts carb ratio; "ease off" and "boost" features.
Training
- Training app for iPhone or Android Ypsopump Explorer App. See "Guided Tours" in the app.
- CAM-APS FX app for Android Phone has learning resources for the patient.
- Health Care Professional Clinical Resources (HCPCanada, ypsomed123)
- CamAPS-FX training portal (login required)
- Carb counting & Carb Ratios are required
- There are "boost" and "ease off" settings that can be optionally engaged in advanced if needed, to address times of insulin resistance or higher senstiivity.
- It is both a learning and predictive algorithm that optimizes automated basal and correction insulin using:
- Past information (TDD, hourly patterns, pc glucose patterns). See this video here
- Current glucose, insulin and carb data
- Internal predictive models (some discussion in this video)
- Safety constraints
The algorithm analyzes this data to predict glucose responses 2.5-4 hours ahead, then selects the most appropriate internal model for optimal insulin delivery at that moment.
