Abstract

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for processing analyte data. In some exemplary implementations, there is provided a method. The method may include selecting at least one module from among a plurality of modules, the selection performed based on metadata including one or more of the following rules: whether the at least one module can be used with a type of device, whether the at least one module can be used with a glycemic state of a host, and whether the at least one module can be used with an expected volume of data generated by the type of device; and generating a report including the selected at least one module configured to present information representative of the glucose concentration level measured in the host. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.

1. A method for improving glucose monitoring using a glucose sensor, an analyte processor and a user interface by improving glucose control indications on the user interface, the method comprising:

receiving at the analyte processor a request to generate a report representative of health data associated with and including glucose sensor data for presentation on a display of the user interface;

accessing metadata associated with data received from at least one device of a host, wherein the at least one device includes at least one of the glucose sensor or a computing device, the metadata including information associated with at least one of the host or a glucose monitoring device;

automatically responding to the request by dynamically selecting, based on the metadata, a view from a plurality of defined views for presentation of the health data on the user interface;

compressing details of the health data over a time period into a graphical abstraction of the details of the health data, the graphical abstraction correlating the health data for presentation in the dynamically-selected view, and

placing the dynamically-selected view within the report based on the metadata, wherein the graphical abstraction of the details of health data includes at least one graphical indicator indicative of glucose control over the time period, and enables the host to readily perform a visual correlation of glucose control and the health data; and

providing the generated report, including the dynamically-selected view with the graphical abstraction correlating the health data, to the user interface for presentation,

wherein the receiving, the accessing, the responding, the generating, and the providing are implemented by at least one processor within the analyte processor.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the information associated with the host comprises at least one of a user preference for the dynamically-selected view and host identification information.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the user preference comprises a preference provided by at least one of the host, a health care provider, or a processor programmatically based on the metadata, and wherein the glucose monitor the comprises at least one of a continuous glucose monitor or a self-monitoring blood glucose monitor.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the metadata further comprises one or more rules selected from the following rules:

whether the at least one dynamically-selected view can be used with the glucose monitoring device, whether the at least one dynamically-selected view can be used with a glycemic state of the host, and whether the at least one dynamically-selected view can be used with an expected volume of data provided by the glucose monitoring device.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the dynamically-selected view graphically highlights when a glucose concentration level measured in the host is at least one of above, below, or within a predetermined target range of glucose concentration levels of the host.

6. An apparatus for improving glucose monitoring using a glucose sensor by improving glucose control indications on a user interface, the apparatus comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory including code which when executed by the at least one processor provides operation comprising;

accessing metadata associated with data received from at least one device of a host, wherein the at least one device includes at least one of the glucose sensor or a computing device, the metadata including information associated with at least one of the host or a glucose monitoring device;

automatically respond to a received request to generate a report representative of glucose sensor data by dynamically selecting, based on the metadata, at least one view of a plurality of defined views of health data associated with the glucose sensor data, the metadata including one or more of the following rules;

whether the at least one module dynamically-selected view can be used with a glucose monitoring device, whether the at least one dynamically-selected view can be used with a glycemic state of a host, or whether the at least one dynamically-selected view can be used with an expected volume of data generated by the glucose monitoring device;

generating a report to include the at least one dynamically-selected view including;

structuring the report to present the health data within a single view when the generated report is presented on a display of the user interface by compressing data of a time period into a graphical abstraction of details of the health data, the graphical abstraction correlating the health data for presentation within the dynamically-selected view, including at least one graphical indicator indicative of glucose control over the time period, and enables the host to readily perform a visual correlation of glucose control and the health data, and

placing the at least one dynamically-selected view within the report based on the metadata; and

providing the generated report, including the at least one dynamically-selected view, to the user interface for presentation.

7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein dynamically selecting further comprises selecting the at least one view when the metadata indicates the at least one view is configured for use with a continuous glucose monitor.

8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein dynamically selecting further comprises selecting another view from the plurality of defined views when the metadata indicates the at least one view is not configured for use with the continuous glucose monitor and the other view is configured for use with the continuous glucose monitor.

9. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein dynamically selecting further comprises selecting the at least one view from among a plurality of defined views when the metadata indicates the at least one view is configured for use with a certain size display for presenting the report.
