SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING ALERTS OPTIMIZED FOR A USER
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising instructions for causing a computing environment to perform a method of safely reducing alerting of users to diabetic states that require attention, the method comprising steps of:
- identifying a current or future diabetic state warranting attention, the identifying based at least partially on a glucose concentration value;
determining if the identified diabetic state warranting attention is atypical for the user;
if a result of the determining is that the identified diabetic state is atypical for the user, then alerting the user with a user prompt on a user interface of a monitoring device, the user prompt indicating the diabetic state warranting attention,whereby the user is only notified of the diabetic state warranting attention if the identified diabetic state is atypical for the user.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.
