Abstract:
A computer-implemented therapy management system is operated to collect patient data associated with medical device users. Treatment of the users is managed by healthcare professionals (HCPs), which include a customer HCP and a plurality of non-customer HCPs. The system receives a first set of attributes for a first individual patient or a first group of patients under care of the customer HCP, and a second set of attributes for a second individual patient or a second group of patients. The system identifies a first set of patient records associated with the customer HCP that satisfy the received first attributes, and a second set of patient records that satisfy the received second attributes, and compares patient outcomes from the first set of records against patient outcomes from the second set of records. A comparative therapy report is generated and communicated to a client device associated with the customer HCP.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are techniques related to event-oriented predictions of glycemic responses. In some embodiments, the techniques may involve accessing a prediction model that correlates a person's glycemic responses to events and the person's physiological parameters during the events. The techniques may also involve obtaining a glucose level measurement of the person during an event. Additionally, the techniques may involve determining, based on the glucose level measurement, a physiological parameter of the person during the event. Furthermore, the techniques may involve predicting the person's glycemic response to the event based on applying the prediction model to the physiological parameter.
Abstract:
Medical devices and related patient management systems and event detection methods are provided. An exemplary method of detecting events pertaining to operation of a medical device, such as an infusion device, involves obtaining measurements indicative of a condition in a body of a patient, determining statistics for an analysis interval based on the measurements, and determining an event probability associated with the analysis interval based on historical event data associated with the patient. An event detection model associated with the patient is obtained and applied to the statistics and the event probability to identify occurrence of the event using the event detection model, and in response, an indication of the event associated with the analysis interval is provided, for example, by tagging or marking data in a database, displaying graphical indicia of the event, or the like.
Abstract:
Infusion devices and related medical devices, patient data management systems, and methods are provided for monitoring a physiological condition of a patient. An exemplary method of monitoring a physiological condition of a patient involves obtaining measurement data pertaining to the physiological condition of the patient from a sensing arrangement, obtaining medical record data associated with the patient from a database, determining a risk score associated with the patient for a medical condition based at least in part on the measurement data, the medical record data, and one or more relationships between population measurement data and population medical record data, and initiating one or more actions based at least in part on the risk score.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are techniques related to blood glucose estimation based on rate of change information. In some embodiments, the techniques may involve obtaining a sensor glucose value. The techniques may also involve calculating a sensor glucose rate of change based on the sensor glucose value. The techniques may further involve determining an estimated glucose bias value corresponding to the sensor glucose rate of change. The determining may be based on applying, to the sensor glucose rate of change, a predictive model for estimating glucose bias values corresponding to differences between blood glucose measurements and sensor glucose values. Additionally, the techniques may involve adjusting the sensor glucose value based on accounting for the estimated glucose bias value.
Abstract:
The system disclosed here includes a computer-implemented patient therapy management and coaching system, a database system to collect and maintain patient data associated with a plurality of medical device users that includes a trainee patient assigned to a coach, and a user device communicatively coupled to the patient therapy management and coaching system and associated with the coach. The management and coaching system is operative to: receive a patient request for coaching; process the request to automatically identify goals to be achieved by the trainee patient; communicate the goals to the coach's user device; receive an accepted goal selected from the identified goals; create a patient coaching program for the accepted goal; generate insight messages based on patient data collected for the trainee patient, the generated insight messages related to the patient coaching program; and deliver the generated insight messages to the user device associated with the coach.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented system and related method of managing use of a diabetes management device are presented here. An embodiment of the method obtains a number of glycemic insight messages for delivery to a user device associated with a user of the diabetes management device, each of the glycemic insight messages conveying information regarding a relationship between an insight event derived from patient-specific historical input data and a glycemic outcome. The glycemic insight messages are culled and prioritized to identify a group of insight messages intended for delivery. The method continues by queuing the group of insight messages based on the culling and prioritizing, and communicating at least one of the queued insight messages to the user device.
