1. A method comprising:
- obtaining, at data processing hardware, a glucose measurement of a patient and patient condition parameters during a pre-meal time, the patient condition parameters comprising a number of carbohydrates to be consumed by the patient, and the pre-meal time associated with a meal type corresponding to one of breakfast, lunch, or dinner;
determining, by the data processing hardware, a recommended meal bolus for the patient based on the obtained patient condition parameters;
obtaining, by the data processing hardware, an insulin sensitivity factor for the patient and a target glucose range defined by upper and lower glucose limits for the patient;
determining, by the data processing hardware, whether the glucose measurement exceeds a midpoint of the target glucose range for the patient;
when the glucose measurement exceeds the midpoint of the target glucose range for the patient, determining, by the data processing hardware, a correction dose by calculating;

Abstract
A glycemic control system includes a physician processor, remote processor, and a portable telephone having a data input mechanism, a display, and an internal processor for bi-directional communication with the physician'"'"'s processor and the remote processor. A patient inputs data to the internal processor responsive to input from the physician'"'"'s processor and then transmits the information to the remote processor where an optimized number of units to be administered is sent back and displayed on the portable telephone.

10. A system comprising:
-
a user device controlled by a patient and having a screen, the user device configured to execute a user interface for display on the screen; and data processing hardware in communication with the user device, the data processing hardware configured to perform operations comprising; obtaining a glucose measurement of the patient and patient condition parameters during a pre-meal time, the patient condition parameters comprising a number of carbohydrates to be consumed by the patient, and the pre-meal time associated with a meal type corresponding to one of breakfast, lunch, or dinner; determining a recommended meal bolus for the patient based on the obtained patient condition parameters; obtaining an insulin sensitivity factor for the patient and a target glucose range defined by upper and lower glucose limits for the patient; determining whether the obtained glucose measurement exceeds a midpoint of the target glucose range for the patient; when the glucose measurement exceeds the midpoint of the target glucose range for the patient, determining a correction dose by calculating; - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
