Diabetes manager for glucose testing and continuous glucose monitoring
First Claim
1. A handheld diabetes management device for managing blood glucose test data and continuous glucose monitoring data, comprising:
- a port residing in the handheld diabetes management device and configured to receive a test strip;
a wireless transceiver;
a communications processor cooperatively operable with the wireless transceiver to periodically collect glucose measurement data from a continuous glucose monitoring device and to store the glucose measurement data in a first data storage module, the communications processor being operable to consume electrical power at a first rate; and
a user interface processor in data communication with the communication processor, wherein the user interface processor operates in an active mode to retrieve and process the glucose measurement data from the communication processor and operates in a low power mode asynchronously from the communications processor;
wherein the communication processor detects a trigger condition and, in response to the trigger condition, wakes up the user interface processor from the low power mode to the active mode, such that the user interface processor consumes electrical power in the active mode at a higher rate than the first rate and the user interface processor consumes electrical power in the low power mode at a lower rate than the first rate.

Abstract
A handheld diabetes management device for managing blood glucose test data and continuous glucose monitoring data includes a port configured to receive a test strip, a wireless transceiver, a communications processor, and a user interface processor. The communications processor communicates with the wireless transceiver to periodically collect glucose measurement data from a continuous glucose monitoring device and to store the glucose measurement data in a first data storage module. The communications processor is operable to consume electrical power at a first rate. The user interface processor communicates with the communication processor to receive the glucose measurement data and operable to display the glucose measurement data on the device. The communications processor operates asynchronously from operation of the user interface processor to collect the glucose measurement data and the user interface processor operates to consume electrical power at a second rate that is higher than the first rate.
