Abstract
A system for recommending insulin bolus quantities to an insulin user includes a display unit and memory unit coupled to a control circuit with a user blood glucose target stored in the memory unit. The control circuit is programmed to receive the user'"'"'s current blood glucose value, to determine and display via the display unit a recommended correction insulin bolus quantity if the current blood glucose value exceeds the blood glucose target, to compute a difference value as the current blood glucose value less the blood glucose target, and to produce a modified blood glucose target as a sum of the blood glucose target and the difference value for a lock-out time period if the difference value is positive. Additional correction insulin bolus quantities may be recommended during the lock-out time period if the user'"'"'s current blood glucose value exceeds the modified blood glucose target.

16. A system for recommending insulin bolus quantities to an insulin user, the system comprising:
-
a data input device for providing information from the user, a display for displaying information to the user, and a control circuit including a memory having a blood glucose target for the user stored therein, the control circuit receiving a current blood glucose value of the user from information provided by the user via the data input device, the control circuit determining a recommended insulin bolus quantity if the current blood glucose value exceeds the blood glucose target, computing a difference value as the current blood glucose value less the blood glucose target, and increasing the blood glucose target by the difference value for a lock-out time period if the difference value is positive, the control circuit controlling the display to display the recommended insulin bolus quantity to the user. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)

27. A system for recommending insulin bolus quantities to an insulin user, the system comprising:
-
a data input device for providing information from the user, a display for displaying information to the user, and a control circuit including a memory having a blood glucose target for the user stored therein, the control circuit receiving a carbohydrate value from information provided by the user via the data input device, the carbohydrate value indicative of a quantity of carbohydrates that will be subsequently ingested by the user, the control circuit determining a recommended compensation insulin bolus quantity as a function of the carbohydrate value and increasing the blood glucose target by a post-prandial increase value to produce a first modified blood glucose target for a post-prandial lock-out time period if the carbohydrate value exceeds a threshold value, the control circuit controlling the display to display the recommended compensation insulin bolus quantity to the user. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30, 31)

38. A system for recommending insulin bolus quantities to an insulin user, the system comprising:
-
a data input device for providing information from the user, a display for displaying information to the user, and a control circuit including a memory having a blood glucose target for the user stored therein, the control circuit receiving a current user blood glucose value and a carbohydrate value from information provided by the user via the data input device, the carbohydrate value indicative of a quantity of carbohydrates that will be subsequently ingested by establishing a blood glucose target for the user, the control circuit determining a recommended compensation insulin bolus quantity as a function of the carbohydrate value, and determining a recommended correction insulin bolus quantity if the current blood glucose value exceeds the blood glucose target, the control circuit increasing the blood glucose target by a post-prandial increase value for a post-prandial lock-out time period if the carbohydrate value exceeds a threshold value and increasing the blood glucose target by a difference value, corresponding to the current blood glucose value less the blood glucose target, for a correction lock-out time period if the difference value is positive, the control circuit controlling the display to display the recommended compensation and correction insulin bolus quantities to the user. - View Dependent Claims (39, 40, 41)
