Abstract:

The handheld blood glucose meter creates blood glucose records having contextual information to improve filtering of blood glucose records for improved healthcare decisions. The contextual information includes events and associated sub-events. The user selects an event indicator from the plurality of event indicators, and the meter associates the blood glucose measurement with an event that corresponds to the event indicator. The user selects a sub-event indicator from the plurality of sub-event indicators, and the meter associates the blood glucose measurement with a sub-event that corresponds to the sub-event indicator. The user repeats the preceding steps to obtain a plurality of blood glucose measurements with associated events and sub-events. The user selects data filtering, a predetermined range of blood glucose measurements along with an event and sub-event to produce a filter result meeting these criteria.

US Classification:

702 19

Abstract:

A method includes: measuring a blood glucose (bG) level in a blood sample; storing the bG level and a time of receipt of the blood sample; storing a classification of the blood sample; in response to the receipt of the blood sample, selecting a group of stored bG levels having the classification of the blood sample and that were received within a predetermined period before receipt of the blood sample; calculating a bG evaluation parameter from the selected bG levels; evaluating the bG evaluation parameter in relation to first predetermined criteria, the first predetermined criteria including a first threshold indicative of a high bG level or a low bG level; selectively displaying an indication of recognition of a pattern in the selected bG levels when the bG evaluation parameter is greater than or less than the first threshold; and selectively removing the indication from the display.
