Abstract

Method and system including displaying a first representation of a medication treatment parameter profile, displaying a first representation of a physiological profile associated with the medication treatment parameter profile, detecting a modification to a segment of the medication treatment parameter profile, displaying a modified representation of the medication treatment parameter profile and the physiological profile based on the detected modification to the segment of the medication treatment parameter profile, modifying an attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile, and modifying an attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile are provided.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

displaying a first representation of a medication treatment parameter profile;

displaying a first representation of a physiological profile associated with the medication treatment parameter profile;

detecting a modification to a segment of the medication treatment parameter profile;

displaying a modified representation of the medication treatment parameter profile and the physiological profile based on the detected modification to the segment of the medication treatment parameter profile;

modifying an attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile; and

modifying an attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein modifying the attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile includes modifying a visual attribute without modifying the underlying value associated with the profile.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein the visual attribute includes one or more of a color representation, a line representation, visual contrast representation.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein the modified representation and the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile includes at least an overlapping displayed segment.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein the modified representation and the first representation of the physiological profile are substantially non-overlapping.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the medication treatment parameter profile includes one or more of a basal rate profile, an insulin sensitivity profile, an insulin to carbohydrate ratio, an meal event, a bolus event, or an insulin type profile.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein the physiological profile includes a glucose level profile, an oxygen level profile, or a blood pressure level profile.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein modifying the attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile includes modifying a visual attribute without modifying the underlying value associated with the profile.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein when the attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile is modified, the displayed position of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile is not changed.

10. The method of claim 1 wherein when the attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile is modified, the displayed position of the first representation of the physiological profile is not changed.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein the displayed first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile and the physiological profile respectively includes one or more of a line graph, a bar graph, a 2-dimensional graph, or a 3-dimensional graph.

13. An apparatus, comprising:

a display unit;

one or more processing units coupled to the display unit; and

a memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processing units, causes the one or more processing units to display a first representation of a medication treatment parameter profile, display a first representation of a physiological profile associated with the medication treatment parameter profile, detect a modification to a segment of the medication treatment parameter profile, display a modified representation of the medication treatment parameter profile and the physiological profile based on the detected modification to the segment of the medication treatment parameter profile, modify an attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile, and modify an attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processing units, causes the one or more processing units to modify a visual attribute associated with the physiological profile without modifying the underlying value associated with the first representation of the physiological profile, and to modify a visual attribute associated with the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile without modifying the underlying value associated with the medication treatment parameter profile.

15. The apparatus of claim 14 wherein the visual attribute includes one or more of a color representation, a line representation, visual contrast representation.

16. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the modified representation and the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile includes at least an overlapping displayed segment.

17. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the modified representation and the first representation of the physiological profile are substantially non-overlapping.

18. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the medication treatment parameter profile includes one or more of a basal rate profile, an insulin sensitivity profile, an insulin to carbohydrate ratio, an meal event, a bolus event, or an insulin type profile.

19. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the physiological profile includes a glucose level profile, an oxygen level profile, or a blood pressure level profile.

20. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein when the attribute of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile is modified, the displayed position of the first representation of the medication treatment parameter profile is not changed, and further, wherein when the attribute of the first representation of the physiological profile is modified, the displayed position of the first representation of the physiological profile is not changed.
