Signal processing for continuous analyte sensor
First Claim
1. A method for estimating an analyte value from a continuous analyte sensor, the method comprising:
- receiving a data stream from a continuous analyte sensor for a time period;
evaluating, using a processor module, the data stream;
estimating, using the processor module, at least one analyte value for a future time period based on the data stream evaluation,determining, using the processor module, a confidence level in an accuracy of the estimated at least one analyte value; and
triggering, using the processor module, an alarm when the estimated analyte value meets a first criterion and the confidence level meets a second criterion.

Abstract
Systems and methods for dynamically and intelligently estimating analyte data from a continuous analyte sensor, including receiving a data stream, selecting one of a plurality of algorithms, and employing the selected algorithm to estimate analyte values. Additional data processing includes evaluating the selected estimative algorithms, analyzing a variation of the estimated analyte values based on statistical, clinical, or physiological parameters, comparing the estimated analyte values with corresponding measure analyte values, and providing output to a user. Estimation can be used to compensate for time lag, match sensor data with corresponding reference data, warn of upcoming clinical risk, replace erroneous sensor data signals, and provide more timely analyte information encourage proactive behavior and preempt clinical risk.
