1. A method of improving diabetes management with an electronic analyte monitoring and management system comprising a sensor, one or more processing units, and an infusion device, the method comprising:
- continuously or semi-continuously monitoring, using the sensor, an analyte level of a user, wherein the monitoring occurs during a time segment in which a medication was administered to the user according to a first medication delivery profile;
determining, using the one or more processing units, a frequency of an analyte level deviation during the time segment;
determining, using the one or more processing units, a second medication delivery profile for administration of the medication during the time segment when the frequency of the analyte level deviation exceeds a threshold; and
administering the medication with the infusion device according to the second medication delivery profile such that the frequency of the analyte level deviation is reduced.

Abstract
Method and system for providing basal profile modification in insulin therapy for use with infusion devices includes periodically monitoring the analyte levels of a patient for a predetermined period of time in order to determine, based on the monitored analyte levels, an appropriate modification factor to be incorporated into the underlying basal profile which was running at the time the periodic monitoring of the analyte levels were performed.

11. An apparatus, comprising:
-
an infusion device adapted to administer a medication to a user according to instructions from one or more processing units; a sensor adapted to continuously or semi-continuously sense an analyte level of the user;
the one or more processing units operatively coupled with the infusion device and the sensor; anda data storage unit operatively coupled to the one or more processing units, the data storage unit having stored therein executable programming instructions which, upon execution, cause the one or more processing units to; determine a frequency of an analyte level deviation during a time segment; determine a second medication delivery profile for administration of the medication during the time segment when the frequency of the analyte level deviation exceeds a threshold; and cause administration of the medication by the infusion device according to the second medication delivery profile such that the frequency of the analyte level deviation is reduced. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
