Abstract

A method of diabetes analysis is provided. A plurality of glucose level readings for a user is received. The plurality of blood glucose level readings are analyzed to generate a report. The report includes a first chart along a 24-hour timeline indicating the plurality of glucose level readings, and a second chart having at least one of infusion device settings and active insulin levels corresponding to the 24-hour timeline of the first chart.

Claims

1. A method of diabetes analysis, comprising:

receiving a plurality of glucose level readings for a user; and

analyzing the plurality of blood glucose level readings to generate a report, wherein the report includes

a first chart along a 24-hour timeline indicating the plurality of glucose level readings, and

a second chart having at least one of infusion device settings and active insulin levels corresponding to the 24-hour timeline of the first chart.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of glucose level readings are blood glucose level readings taken from a blood glucose meter.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of glucose level readings are continuous blood glucose level readings received from a continuous glucose monitor sensor.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the second chart further includes an interpretation report.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the infusion device settings include at least one of basal rate, insulin sensitivity, and carbohydrate ratio.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the second chart further includes basal rate information corresponding to the 24-hour timeline of the first chart.

7. An article of manufacture containing code for diabetes analysis, comprising a computer-usable medium including at least one embedded computer program that is capable of causing at least one computer to perform:

receiving a plurality of glucose level readings for a user; and

analyzing the plurality of blood glucose level readings to generate a report, wherein the report includes

a first chart along a 24-hour timeline indicating the plurality of glucose level readings, and

a second chart having at least one of infusion device settings and active insulin levels corresponding to the 24-hour timeline of the first chart.

8. The article of claim 7, wherein the plurality of glucose level readings are blood glucose level readings taken from a blood glucose meter.

9. The article of claim 7, wherein the plurality of glucose level readings are continuous blood glucose level readings received from a continuous glucose monitor sensor.

10. The article of claim 7, wherein the second chart further includes an interpretation report.

11. The article of claim 7, wherein the infusion device settings include at least one of basal rate, insulin sensitivity, and carbohydrate ratio.

12. The article of claim 7, wherein the second chart further includes basal rate information corresponding to the 24-hour timeline of the first chart.
