Abstract
The invention relates to a method for calibrating an analyte-measurement device that is used to evaluate a concentration of analyte in bodily fluid at or from a measurement site in a body. The method involves measuring a concentration, or calibration concentration, of an analyte in blood from an “off-finger” calibration site, and calibrating the analyte-measurement device based on that calibration concentration. The invention also relates to a device, system, or kit for measuring a concentration of an analyte in a body, which employs a calibration device for adjusting analyte concentration measured in bodily fluid based on an analyte concentration measured in blood from an “off-finger” calibration site.

2. A machine-executed method of continuous analyte monitoring for a host to facilitate management of the host'"'"'s blood glucose level, the method comprising:
receiving a first input from a continuous analyte monitor (CAM) device including analyte concentration data of the host; receiving or determining an expected maximum value and an expected minimum reference value; receiving a first reference value from a reference analyte monitor; processing the first reference value by comparing it to the expected maximum value and the expected minimum value; and producing an output of an alert to obtain a second reference value if the first reference value does not meet the range defined by the expected maximum value and the expected minimum value.
