Insulin Management
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at data processing hardware, sequential blood glucose measurements of a patient, the sequential blood glucose measurements comprising a current blood glucose measurement measured at a current time;
executing, by the data processing hardware, an intravenous treatment process configured to display on a screen in communication with the data processing hardware a graphical user interface, wherein the intravenous treatment process is configured to;
display, in the graphical user interface, a countdown timer indicating a remaining time until a next time of a next scheduled blood glucose measurement for the patient;
display, in the graphical user interface, a patient information input window;
receive, in the patient information input window, a target blood glucose range for the patient comprising a range of blood glucose values between and including a lower limit blood glucose value and an upper limit blood glucose value greater than the lower limit blood glucose value; and
receive, in the patient information input window, a specified number of consecutive blood glucose measurements of the patient within the target blood glucose range to determine a blood glucose concentration for the patient is stable in the target blood glucose range;
determining, by the data processing hardware, whether the current blood glucose measurement and one or more previous blood glucose measurements equal the specified number of consecutive blood glucose measurements within the target blood glucose range; and
determining, by the data processing hardware, a next time interval from the current time until the next time of the next scheduled blood glucose measurement for the patient based on the current blood glucose measurement, the next time interval comprising a long time interval when the current blood glucose measurement and the one or more previous blood glucose measurements equal the specified number of consecutive blood glucose measurements within the target blood glucose range.

Abstract
A method of managing insulin includes receiving blood glucose measurements on a computing device from a glucometer. The blood glucose measurements are separated by a time interval. The method includes determining, by the computing device, an insulin dose rate based on the blood glucose measurements and determining a blood glucose drop rate based on the blood glucose measurements and the time interval. The method also includes determining a blood glucose percentage drop based on the blood glucose measurements. The method includes decreasing the time interval between blood glucose measurements by the glucometer when the blood glucose drop rate is greater than a threshold drop rate, and decreasing the time interval between blood glucose measurements by the glucometer when the blood glucose percentage drop is greater than a threshold percentage drop.
