1. A system for management of diabetes of a subject, the system comprising:
- at least one glucose monitor for measurements of the glucose levels of the subject;
an insulin infusion pump configured for communication with the at least one blood glucose monitor and delivery of insulin to the subject; and
a controller in communication with at least the insulin infusion pump and the at least one glucose monitor, the controller being configured to receive or transmit data regarding glucose levels and dosing of insulin from the at least one glucose monitor and pump for analysis the controller so that at least one of a hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic state of the subject is determined by;
evaluation of the glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods for hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia during fasting, and in the event a first proportion of such blood glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods is less than a hypoglycemic threshold, provide an indication of hypoglycemia over a duration spanning the distinct fasting periods, or alternatively, in the event a second proportion of such blood glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods is greater than a hyperglycemic threshold, annunciating an indication of hyperglycemia over a duration spanning the distinct fasting periods; and
ascertainment from the glucose measurements measured after external events have occurred to the user for hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia after such external events and provide an indication of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia whenever a portion of the blood glucose measurements measured after the external disturbance is at or below a hypoglycemic threshold or whenever the blood glucose measurements measured after the external disturbance is at or above a hyperglycemic threshold.

Abstract
Various methods and systems to manage diabetes of a subject using data relating to patterns to provide insight into how a patient'"'"'s daily activities impact glycemic control of the subject. These patterns help to identify very specific areas of glycemic excursions, enable patients and HCPs to more easily identify patterns of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in order to take steps to improve glycemic control of the person with diabetes.

2. A method for managing diabetes of a subject with at least a blood glucose monitor, the method comprising:
-
conducting, with the blood glucose monitor, a plurality of blood glucose measurements of the subject; storing the plurality of blood glucose measurements in a memory; evaluating the plurality of blood glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods for hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia during fasting, and in the event a first proportion of such blood glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods is less than a hypoglycemic threshold, annunciating an indication of hypoglycemia over a duration spanning the distinct fasting periods, or alternatively, in the event a second proportion of such blood glucose measurements measured over distinct fasting periods is greater than a hyperglycemic threshold, annunciating an indication of hyperglycemia over a duration spanning the distinct fasting periods. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 20)

3. A method for managing diabetes of a subject with at least a blood glucose monitor, the method comprising:
-
conducting, with at least the blood glucose monitor, a plurality of blood glucose measurements of the subject; storing the plurality of blood glucose measurements in a memory; ascertaining from the plurality of blood glucose measurements measured after external events have occurred to the user for hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia after such external events and annunciating an indication of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia whenever a portion of the blood glucose measurements measured after the external disturbance is at or below a hypoglycemic threshold or whenever the blood glucose measurements measured after the external disturbance is at or above a hyperglycemic threshold. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
