Disease simulation system and method
First Claim
1. An electronic device for outputting a signal configured according to at least one control parameter of a patient, comprising:
- (a) an electronic data recording device configured for receiving a prior blood glucose value;
(b) a memory comprising one or more optimal blood glucose values, self-care values of a patient, optimal self-care values, and one or more scaling factors for weighting the impact on a future blood glucose value and that are customized to an individual patient to predict the effect on the blood glucose of self-care actions performed by the individual patient;
(c) a microprocessor, in communication with said electronic data recording device and said memory, programmed to calculate a further value, said further value being based on said self-care values said optimal blood glucose values, and said scaling factors, and(d) a display configured to display information according to said further value, thereby enabling the patient to select appropriate self care actions.

Abstract
A system and method for predicting the effect of patient self-care actions on a disease control parameter. A future disease control parameter value X(tj) at time tj is determined from a prior disease control parameter value X(ti) at time ti based on an optimal control parameter value R(tj) at time tj, the difference between the prior disease control parameter value X(ti) and an optimal control parameter value R(ti) at time ti, and a set of differentials between patient self-care parameters having patient self-care values SM(ti) at time ti and optimal self-care parameters having optimal self-care values OM(ti) at time ti. The differentials are multiplied by corresponding scaling factors KM. The system includes an input device for entering the patient self-care values SM(ti). A memory stores the optimal control parameter values R(ti) and R(tj), the prior disease control parameter value X(ti), the optimal self-care values OM(ti), and the scaling factors KM. A processor in communication with the input device and memory calculates the future disease control parameter value X(tj). A display is connected to the processor to display the future disease control parameter value X(tj) to a patient.
