Summary:Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods that account for exercise in closed loop insulin delivery systems. Rather than increasing a target insulin on board (IOB) as glucose levels rise, which would increase insulin delivery to address the raised glucose levels, when a user indicates that the user will be exercising raised glucose levels are addressed by reducing the target IOB within the closed loop algorithm. By reducing the target IOB, the algorithm responds less aggressively to pre-exercise food, and does not build up the IOB that can cause dangerously low glucose levels once the exercise also begins lowering glucose levels.
