Blood Glucose Meter Supporting Contextual Data Filtering
First Claim
1. A method for filtering blood glucose measurements and associated contextual data of a user on a handheld blood glucose meter, comprising:
- storing by the blood glucose meter a plurality of blood glucose measurements with each of the blood glucose measurements having an associated date and time, an event, and a sub-event associated with the event, the blood glucose having a meter display;
selecting data filtering on the meter display by the user;
selecting a predetermined range for blood glucose measurements;
selecting from a plurality of event indicators on the meter display an event indicator by the user;
selecting from a plurality of sub-event indicators on the meter display associated with the selected event indicator a sub-event indicator by the user; and
displaying a plurality of blood glucose measurements within the predetermined range that have both the event and sub-event that correspond to the event indicator and sub-event indicator selected by the user.

Abstract
The handheld blood glucose meter creates blood glucose records having contextual information to improve filtering of blood glucose records for improved healthcare decisions. The contextual information includes events and associated sub-events. The user selects an event indicator from the plurality of event indicators, and the meter associates the blood glucose measurement with an event that corresponds to the event indicator. The user selects a sub-event indicator from the plurality of sub-event indicators, and the meter associates the blood glucose measurement with a sub-event that corresponds to the sub-event indicator. The user repeats the preceding steps to obtain a plurality of blood glucose measurements with associated events and sub-events. The user selects data filtering, a predetermined range of blood glucose measurements along with an event and sub-event to produce a filter result meeting these criteria.
