SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DYNAMICALLY AND INTELLIGENTLY MONITORING A HOST'S GLYCEMIC CONDITION AFTER AN ALERT IS TRIGGERED
First Claim
1. A method of avoiding unnecessary hyperglycemic alerts, the method comprising:
- initially activating a first alert state based on one or more first criteria associated with a hyperglycemic condition;
waiting a time period before providing an output associated with the first alert state;
actively monitoring, by a processor module, data associated with the host'"'"'s hyperglycemic condition during the waiting time period; and
providing an output associated with the first alert state after the waiting time period based on the data associated with the host'"'"'s hyperglycemic condition meeting one or more second criteria.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing sensitive and specific alarms indicative of glycemic condition are provided herein. In an embodiment, a method of processing sensor data by a continuous analyte sensor includes: evaluating sensor data using a first function to determine whether a real time glucose value meets a first threshold; evaluating sensor data using a second function to determine whether a predicted glucose value meets a second threshold; activating a hypoglycemic indicator if either the first threshold is met or if the second threshold is predicted to be met; and providing an output based on the activated hypoglycemic indicator.
