Abstract

Methods and system for providing diabetes management including automatic time acquisition protocol and expiration date detection are provided.

Claims

1. A device, comprising:

a user interface to receive a user input, and to output information related to the operation of the device;

a communication component to receive glucose data based on signals generated by an in vivo glucose sensor;

one or more processors; and

a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to;

store the information related to the operation of the device in the memory, and determine a change in environment in which the device is operating, and in response obtain time data and update the stored information based on the time data.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein the change in environment corresponds to a change in time zone in which the device is operating.

3. The device of claim 1, wherein the change in environment corresponds to a change in altitude of the device location.

4. The device of claim 1, wherein the information related to the operation of the device is information for a therapy profile for a user.

5. The device of claim 1, wherein the communication component is configured to receive the glucose data over at least one of an RF communication link, a Bluetooth communication link, or an infrared communication link.

6. The device of claim 1, wherein the in vivo glucose sensor comprises a plurality of electrodes including a working electrode comprising an analyte-responsive enzyme bonded to a polymer disposed on the working electrode.

7. The device of claim 6, wherein the analyte-responsive enzyme is chemically bonded to the polymer.

8. The device of claim 6, wherein the working electrode further comprises a mediator.

9. The device of claim 1, wherein the in vivo glucose sensor comprises a plurality of electrodes including a working electrode comprising a mediator bonded to a polymer disposed on the working electrode.

10. The device of claim 9, wherein the mediator is chemically bonded to the polymer.
