摘要:
A method for conducting a Testing In Pairs (TIPs) blood glucose (bG) test using a handheld diabetes management device carried by a user. A processing subsystem of the device implements a software module for managing the TIPs test. The software module generates a plurality of predetermined acceptance time windows corresponding to different user defined events. The processing subsystem can identify specific ones of a plurality of bG test values read by the device that are obtained during the predetermined bG acceptance time windows, and which are identified as being related pairs of accepted bG test values that correspond to specific ones of the user defined events. The related pairs of accepted bG test values can then be stored in a database.

A device and method for delivering insulin to a patient is disclosed. The method includes receiving an amount of insulin to deliver to a patient and beginning delivery of the insulin to the patient. The method further includes monitoring the delivery of the insulin to determine whether the insulin pump is able to deliver the entire amount of insulin and maintaining a timer until the insulin pump recommences the delivery of the insulin. The method includes comparing an amount of time indicated by the timer to a threshold. The method further includes generating a first insulin delivery record indicating that a first amount of insulin was delivered when the amount of time indicated by the timer is less than the threshold and a second insulin record indicating that a second amount of insulin was delivered when the amount of time indicated by the timer is greater than the threshold.

Embodiments of methods of querying a diabetic patient regarding compliance with adherence criteria comprises instructing the diabetic patient to collect at least one sample in a sampling set of biomarker data, wherein each sampling set comprises a sufficient plurality of samples recorded over a collection period, comparing the collected samples to an acceptable range, wherein the acceptable range encompasses biomarker values that would be expected upon compliance with the adherence criteria, and informing the diabetic patient if at least one sample is an unacceptable value which falls outside of the acceptable range, and performing at least one additional task after detecting the unacceptable value.

A method of improving updatability of entry, adherence, and exit criteria stored in memory of a handheld diabetes management device, the method includes: providing the handheld diabetes management device with a blood glucose (bG) measurement engine that measures a bG level in a sample of blood of a user and that generates sample data indicative of the bG level; providing the handheld diabetes management device with the memory and a touchscreen display; providing the handheld diabetes management device with a processor module that is in communication with the bG measurement engine, the touchscreen display, and the memory; storing firmware that is executable by the processor module for performing operations to carry out a structured bG test in a non-modifiable portion of the memory; and storing the entry, adherence, and exit criteria in a modifiable portion of the memory.
摘要:
A device, method, and graphical user interface for displaying diabetes related information sets aligned by the occurrence of a particular event are disclosed. After receiving a request for an event-aligned display of diabetes related information based on an event, a search for a plurality of tagged occurrences of the event and retrieval of an information set for each of the plurality of tagged occurrences is provided. Each information set may include diabetes related information chronologically related to the tagged occurrence. The retrieved information sets is displayed on a display, wherein the retrieved information sets are shown on the display aligned by their tagged occurrences such that all diabetes related information is positioned relative the event based on its chronological relationship with the event.

Diabetes health management systems for use in portable devices having and methods thereof having a user interface, a processor, a memory, and a communication circuit are disclosed. In one embodiment, a diabetes health management system has program code further including a communications module, a data module, a therapy module, and an analysis module. The communications module wirelessly couples the portable device to a plurality of user devices. The data module receives and stores into the memory blood glucose measurement values, insulin dosage data, and health data entries. The therapy module determines a therapy advice message based at least in part on the received blood glucose measurement values, the received insulin dosage data, and displays the therapy advice message on the user interface. The analysis module displays on the user interface a graphical representation of selected blood glucose measurement values, selected insulin dosage data, selected health data entries, or combinations thereof.

摘要:
A handheld diabetes management device includes a bG measurement engine, a data store, a display, and a testing module. The bG measurement engine selectively measures bG levels in blood samples. The data store includes data for executing a plurality of structured tests, each of the structured tests calling for execution of one or more of: a first procedure including prompting the patient to input a first blood sample at a first predetermined time; a second procedure including prompting the patient to input second and third blood samples at second and third predetermined times, respectively; a third procedure including prompting the patient to input M blood samples at predetermined intervals beginning after a predetermined offset period; and a fourth procedure including prompting the patient to input N number of blood samples at N predetermined times of a day, respectively. The testing module selectively executes one or more of the structured tests.
