Patent number: 11749408Abstract: A mathematical model of type 1 diabetes (T1D) patient decision-making can be used to simulate, in silico, realistic glucose/insulin dynamics, for several days, in a variety of subjects who take therapeutic actions (e.g. insulin dosing) driven by either self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) or continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). The decision-making (DM) model can simulate real-life situations and everyday patient behaviors. Accurate submodels of SMBG and CGM measurement errors are incorporated in the comprehensive DM model. The DM model accounts for common errors the patients are used to doing in their diabetes management, such as miscalculations of meal carbohydrate content, early/delayed insulin administrations and missed insulin boluses. The DM model can be used to assess in silico if/when CGM can safely substitute SMBG in T1D management, to develop and test guidelines for CGM driven insulin dosing, to optimize and individualize off-line insulin therapies and to develop and test decision support systems.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2021Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: DEXCOM, INC.Inventors: Martina Vettoretti, Andrea Facchinetti, Giovanni Sparacino, Claudio Cobelli

Patent number: 11712182Abstract: Multi-state engagement with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems is described. Given the number of people that wear CGM systems and because CGM systems produce measurements continuously, a platform that provides a CGM system may have an enormous amount of data. This amount of data is practically, if not actually, impossible for humans to process. In implementations, a CGM platform includes a data analytics platform that obtains packages of glucose measurements provided by a CGM system and also obtains additional data associated with a user. The data analytics platform generates state information for the user by processing these CGM packages and the additional data, at least in part, by using one or more models. Based on this state information, the data analytics platform controls communication with the user, which may include generating intervention strategies to prevent users from transitioning to a negative state such as discontinuing use of the CGM system.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Dexcom, Inc.Inventors: Andrew Scott Parker, Annika Emilie Kristina Jimenez, Chad Patterson, Subrai Girish Pai, Apurv Ullas Kamath

Publication number: 20230210411Abstract: Systems and methods described provide dynamic and intelligent ways to change the required level of user interaction during use of a monitoring device. The systems and methods generally relate to real time switching between a first or initial mode of user interaction and a second or new mode of user interaction. In some cases, the switching will be automatic and transparent to the user, and in other cases user notification may occur.
