1. A method of sensor history backfill for a local base device operable to wirelessly communicate with a physiological sensor connected to a patient, the method comprising:

  • obtaining physiological readings for the patient at a predetermined interval;

    storing the physiological readings at the physiological sensor as sensor physiological readings;

    storing the physiological readings at the local base device as historic physiological readings;

    obtaining a current physiological reading for the patient;

    transmitting the current physiological reading to the local base device in a current reading message;

    detecting a record gap in the historic physiological readings between the current physiological reading and the historic physiological readings; and

    filling the record gap in the historic physiological readings with sensor physiological readings from the physiological sensor when the current reading message does not include the sensor physiological readings to fill the record gap,wherein the filling further comprises;

    detecting an End of Day marker that occurred during the record gap, the End of Day marker being stored at the local base device; and

    associating the End of Day marker with the historic physiological readings in the record gap at a time of the End of Day marker.
