Abstract: A method includes obtaining training data for a plurality of patients of a patient population. The training data includes training blood glucose history data including treatment doses of insulin administered by the patients of the patient population and one or more outcome attributes associated with each treatment dose. The method also includes identifying, for each patient of the patient population, one or more optimum treatment doses of insulin from the treatment doses yielding favorable outcome attributes. The method also includes receiving patient-state information for the treated patient, determining a next recommended treatment dose of insulin for the treated patient based on one or more of the identified optimum treatment doses associated with the patients of the patient population having training patient-state information similar to the patient-state information for the treated patient, and transmitting the next recommended treatment dose to a portable device associated with the treated patient.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining blood glucose measurements and blood glucose times of a patient from a blood glucose meter and executing a patient management program configured to display on a screen a graphical user interface having a trend window of the blood glucose measurements on the time line. The patient management program is configured to receive, in the trend window magnifying inputs for a magnification window superimposed on a segment of the timeline to specify a date range for a magnified window. The patient management program is further configured to display the magnified window including the blood glucose measurements of the patient from the specified date range and display a first information window including quantitative information associated with the blood glucose measurements from the specified date range.

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.

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.

Abstract: A method of administering insulin includes receiving scheduled blood glucose time intervals and obtaining blood glucose data of a patient that includes blood glucose measurements, blood glucose times, and insulin dosages previously administered by the patient. The method also includes applying a set of filters to identify which of the blood glucose measurements associated with at least one of the scheduled time intervals are usable and which of the blood glucose measurements associated with the at least one scheduled time interval are unusable. The method also includes aggregating the blood glucose measurements associated with the at least one scheduled time interval identified as usable to determine a representative aggregate blood glucose measurement and determining a next recommended insulin dosage for the patient based on the representative aggregate blood glucose measurement and the insulin dosages previously administered by the patient.

Abstract: A method of administering insulin includes receiving blood glucose measurements of a patient at a data processing device from a glucometer. The blood glucose measurements are separated by a time interval. The method also includes receiving patient information at the data processing device and selecting a subcutaneous insulin treatment from a collection of subcutaneous insulin treatments. The selection is based on the blood glucose measurements and the patient information.
