Developing algorithms for Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems that alleviate the burden of meal announcements, culminating in the FLEX-AP system. This fully automated artificial pancreas system is designed to operate without meal or exercise announcements while allowing for optional user input. FLEX-APaims to achieve a balance between glycemic control and user quality of life by incorporating user preferences into its operation. The FLEX-AP system features a flexible control architecture tailored to handle unannounced meals and exercise. It also allows for optional meal announcements and offers guidance for mitigating hypoglycemia, such as counterregulatory actions like rescue carbohydrate intake for patients who prefer it. The proposed benefit of FLEX-AP is to improve glycemic control while respecting individual preferences, which sets it apart from existing AID systems.
