What Is Loop?
Loop is an iPhone application that consumes CGM, insulin infusion, and other data, as needed to numerically forecast the expected blood glucose levels. It then computes a forecast, and displays the results so that people with diabetes can see faster and better what their own therapy might be.
Loop can also be configured by the user to automate infusions. This “Closed Loop” automation is based on the data available. The team to simply call this application “Loop.”
Tell Me More
Loop is an open source application whose code has been published on the internet for all to see and use.
At this point in time, however, Apple has blocked the normal distribution of the software because it makes the iPhone a “medical device” not cleared by the US FDA.
Medical Data Networks, LLC. is leading a test program called “Bridge to Rebuild” that provides to co-developers a test copy of the Loop software for 90 days.
Medical Data Netoworks, LLC. does not charge any fee to use Loop. In addition, participants in the Bridge to Rebuild project are provided no support, technical assistance, and no Loop support or advice whatsoever.
Contact us if you can help fund this project.
Loop includes software for the Apple Watch. and works with multiple CGM and insulin pump vendors.
