Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems, devices/apparatuses and methods for assessing a residual insulin value for a user/patient. Such embodiments may be implemented by selecting a first value corresponding to a duration of insulin action; selecting a second value corresponding to a lock out time duration, selecting a first time period beginning at a time point T0 minus the first value and ending at the time point T0 minus the second value, selecting one or more boluses delivered during the first time period; for each of the one or more boluses selecting a corresponding residual insulin value estimated at the time point T0, computing the cumulative residual insulin value by summation of the corresponding residual insulin values.
