1. A computer-implemented method for displaying results of at least a three-day structured collection procedure of blood glucose measures obtained by a blood glucose meter to a user of a portable computing device, comprisingadministering, by the computing device, a structured collection procedure over a period of three days to the user, where the structured collection procedure specifies seven future events of pre-breakfast, post-breakfast, pre-lunch, post-lunch, pre-dinner, post-dinner, and bedtime and an acceptance window that is prospective for each of the plurality of future events for obtaining blood glucose measures from a patient throughout the course of a given day;
- obtaining blood glucose measures from the patient by the user operating the blood glucose meter to perform the structured collection procedure over the period of three days;
transferring blood glucose measures from the blood glucose meter to the computing device by the user;
determining, by a sensor residing in the computing device, an orientation of a display of the computing device;
displaying, on a display of the computing device, a first graph for the structured collection procedure in response to a determination that a longitudinal axis of the display is orientated vertical, the first graph plots blood glucose measures from the seven predetermined events that meet the acceptance window that is prospective from each of the three days on the first graph such that one axis of the first graph represents time during a single day and blood glucose measures for each day is a time series represented by a separate line on the first graph; and
displaying, on a display of the computing device, a second graph for the structured collection procedure in response to a determination that the longitudinal axis of the display is orientated horizontal, the second graph plots blood glucose measures from the seven predetermined events that meet the acceptance window that is prospective for each of the three days on the second graph such that one axis of the second graph represents time over three days and blood glucose measures are a time series represented by a single line on the second graph.

Abstract
A method is provided for contextualizing manual entries of blood glucose measures for a patient into a patient log of a portable computing device. The method includes: administering a structured collection procedure, where the structured collection procedure specifies two or more collection actions for obtaining blood glucose measures from a patient; generating a reminder notification for a given collection action of the structured collection procedure, where the given collection action is associated with a given event of patient; and displaying a data entry interface upon receipt of an acceptance input from a user in response to the reminder notification, where the data entry interface includes a first input for a blood glucose measure and a second input for an event associated with the blood glucose measure, such that value for the second input is defaulted to the given event from the reminder notification.

8. A computer-implemented method for displaying results of an n-day patient profile to a user of a portable computing device, comprising
administering, by the computing device, a structured collection procedure over a period of n days, where the structured collection procedure specifies a plurality of predefined time slots for obtaining blood glucose measures from a patient throughout the course of a given day; -
obtaining, by the computing device, blood glucose measures from the patient during the administration of the structured collection procedure; processing, by the computing device, the blood glucose measures as a time series in preparation for display; determining, by a sensor in the computing device, an orientation of a display of the computing device with respect to horizon; displaying, on a display of the computing device, a first graph for the structured collection procedure in response to a determination that a longitudinal axis of the display is orientated vertical, the first graph plots blood glucose measures from each of the n days on the first graph such that one axis of the first graph represents time during a single day and blood glucose measures for each day is represented by a separate line on the first graph; and displaying, on a display of the computing device, a second graph for the structured collection procedure in response to a determination that the longitudinal axis of the display is orientated horizontal, the second graph plots blood glucose measures for each of the n days as a single line along one axis of the second graph that represents time over the course of n days. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
