Insulin management
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at data processing hardware, a blood glucose measurement of a patient from a glucometer;
determining, by the data processing hardware, a blood glucose type of the received blood glucose measurement;
when the determined blood glucose type comprises one of a pre-breakfast blood glucose measurement, a pre-lunch blood glucose measurement, or a pre-dinner blood glucose measurement;
determining, by the data processing hardware, whether a subsequent blood glucose measurement associated with an immediately subsequent blood glucose type has been received from the glucometer during a current day, the immediately subsequent blood glucose type comprising one of;
the pre-lunch blood glucose measurement when the determined blood glucose type comprises the pre-breakfast blood glucose measurement;
the pre-dinner blood glucose measurement when the determined blood glucose type comprises the pre-lunch blood glucose measurement;
ora bedtime blood glucose measurement when the determined blood glucose type comprises the pre-dinner blood glucose measurement;
when the subsequent blood glucose measurement associated with the immediately subsequent blood glucose type has been received, determining, by the data processing hardware, an adjustment factor for adjusting a next day'"'"'s recommended meal bolus for the determined blood glucose type governed by the subsequent blood glucose measurement for the immediately subsequent blood glucose type;
determining, by the data processing hardware, the next day'"'"'s recommended meal bolus at the time of day associated with the determined blood glucose type by multiplying a current day'"'"'s recommended meal bolus associated with the determined blood glucose type times the adjustment factor; and
transmitting the next day'"'"'s recommended meal bolus to an administration device in communication with the data processing hardware on the next day at the time of day associated with the determined blood glucose type, the administration device comprising;
a doser; and
an administration computing device in communication with the doser, the administration computing device configured to cause the doser to administer a number of units of insulin to the patient using the next day'"'"'s recommended meal bolus.

Abstract
A method of administering insulin includes receiving blood glucose measurements of a patient at a data processing device from a glucometer. The blood glucose measurements are separated by a time interval. The method also includes receiving patient information at the data processing device and selecting a subcutaneous insulin treatment from a collection of subcutaneous insulin treatments. The selection is based on the blood glucose measurements and the patient information. The selection includes one or more of a subcutaneous standard program, a subcutaneous program without meal boluses, a meal-by-meal subcutaneous program without carbohydrate counting, a meal-by-meal subcutaneous program with carbohydrate counting, and a subcutaneous program for non-diabetic patients. The method also includes executing, using the data processing device, the selected subcutaneous insulin treatment.

11. A system comprising:
-
a glucometer measuring blood glucose measurements separated by a time interval; and a dosing controller in communication with the glucometer, the dosing controller including data processing hardware and memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware, the dosing controller configured to perform operations comprising; receiving a blood glucose measurement of a patient from a glucometer; determining a blood glucose type of the received blood glucose measurement; when the determined blood glucose type comprises one of a pre-breakfast blood glucose measurement, a pre-lunch blood glucose measurement, or a pre-dinner blood glucose measurement; determining whether a subsequent blood glucose measurement associated with an immediately subsequent blood glucose type has been received from the glucometer during a current day, the immediately subsequent blood glucose type comprising one of; the pre-lunch blood glucose measurement when the determined blood glucose type comprises the pre-breakfast blood glucose measurement; the pre-dinner blood glucose measurement when the determined blood glucose type comprises the pre-lunch blood glucose measurement;
