First Claim
Patent Images
1. A device, comprising:
- a sensor input capable of receiving a signal from a sensor, the signal being based on a sensed physiological characteristic value of a user;
a memory for storing a plurality of measurements of the sensed physiological characteristic value of the user from the received signal from the sensor; and
a display for presenting a graphical representation of the plurality of measurements of the sensed physiological characteristic value, wherein the graphical representation comprises one or more trend indicators, indicating an approximate rate trend in the sensed physiological characteristic value over a recent series of the plurality of measurements.

Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for medical monitoring physiological characteristic values such as blood glucose levels for the treatment of diabetes, are presented. The apparatuses and methods provide for preventing any negative consequence in the operation of a monitor and/or infusion device as a result of disorientation that may occur from waking from slumber with a low blood glucose level. In addition, a graphical display is disclosed incorporating a variety of enhancements which readily conveys to the user historical as well as real time information regarding the measured characteristic value.
