Benefits of technology

This patent describes a device that helps manage blood glucose levels for people with diabetes. The device provides a way for users to see a series of blood glucose measurements without needing any interaction with the device. This reduces the time and complexity of managing blood glucose levels and makes it easier for people with diabetes to keep track of their blood glucose levels and make informed decisions about their lifestyles. Overall, this device helps people with diabetes better manage their disease.

Problems solved by technology

The failure to take corrective action can have serious medical implications.
Failure to test blood glucose levels properly and on a regular basis can result in serious diabetes-related complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, nerve damage and blindness.

Embodiment Construction

[0060]For purposes of promoting an understanding of the principles of the invention, reference will now be made to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used to describe the same. It will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is thereby intended, such alterations and further modifications in the illustrated device, and such further applications of the principles of the invention as illustrated therein being contemplated as would normally occur to one skilled in the art to which the invention relates.

[0061]In order to control and more effectively adjust the therapy, level of activity and lifestyle to achieve optimum glycemic control, diabetics and their health care providers need information based on more than one blood sugar measurement. For example, a series of fasting blood glucose values taken over multiple days and related trends, variability, running or absolute averages can provide help in adjusting beha...

Abstract

A blood glucose management device is disclosed that is operable to seamlessly and sequentially provide a sequence of at least two displays of data relating to one or more blood glucose measurements to a user, upon minimal user interaction with the blood glucose management device.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This patent application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 493,536 (filed 29 Jun. 2009), which is incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]As the number of patients suffering from diabetes and similar medical conditions increases, self-monitoring of blood glucose wherein the patient monitors his or her blood glucose levels has become a common practice. The purpose of monitoring the blood glucose level is to determine the concentration level and then to take corrective action, based upon whether the level is too high or too low, to bring the level back within a normal range. The failure to take corrective action can have serious medical implications. Glucose monitoring is a fact of everyday life for diabetic individuals. Failure to test blood glucose levels properly and on a regular basis can result in serious diabetes-related complications, including cardiovascular disease, kid...
