Patent number: 11278244Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for detecting changes or fluctuations in an analyte concentration signal that are abnormal, e.g., exceed a predetermined threshold, current trend of analyte concentration measurements, etc. Signals indicative of an analyte concentration in a host may be received from an analyte sensor. The signals may be monitored, and a determination can be made as to whether there is a change in the signal. Upon detecting such a change, the change can be compensated for such that a representation of the signal indicates the analyte concentration. Optionally, the cause of the detected changes or fluctuations can also be determined and information regarding the detected changes or fluctuations can be recorded and analyzed for subsequent optimization of the systems and methods as well for transmitting alerts, notifications, etc. to a user to take corrective action.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2017Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Dexcom, Inc.Inventors: Douglas William Burnette, Hari Hampapuram, Apurv Ullas Kamath, Shawn Larvenz, Aditya Mandapaka, Zebediah L. McDaniel, Tom Miller, Jeffrey R. Wedekind, Yonghuang Zeng, Stephen Alan Reichert

Publication number: 20220071487Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for wireless communication of analyte data. One such method includes, during a first interval, establishing a first connection between an analyte sensor system and a display device. During the first connection, the method includes exchanging information related to authentication between the analyte sensor system and the display device. The method includes making a determination regarding whether authentication was performed during the first interval. During a second interval, the method may include establishing a second connection between the analyte sensor system and the display device for transmission of an encrypted analyte value, and bypassing the exchanging of information related to authentication performed during the first connection.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventors: Aditya Mandapaka, Jorge Valdes, Jeffrey R. Wedekind, Eric Cohen, Douglas William Burnette, Francis William Pascual, Hari Hampapuram, Mark Dervaes, Michael Robert Mensinger

Publication number: 20220039703Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for communication among display devices and sensor electronics unit in an analyte monitoring system. The analyte monitoring system may include a sensor that is configured to perform measurements indicative of analyte levels. The sensor may be communicatively coupled to the sensor electronics unit. The sensor electronics unit may be configured to transmit data indicative of analyte levels to the display devices using one or more communication protocols. Furthermore, the sensor electronics unit may be configured to operate in multiple modes, and switch between the modes in response to commands received from the display devices. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2021Publication date: February 10, 2022Inventors: Jeffrey R. Wedekind, Douglas William Burnette, Aditya Mandapaka, Zebediah L. McDaniel, Peter C. Simpson, Arturo Garcia

Publication number: 20210361162Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to continuous monitoring of analyte values received from an analyte sensor system. In some example embodiments, there is provided a method that includes receiving sensor information, calculating and storing estimated analyte measurement values based upon the received sensor information. The method also includes determining one or more communication conditions, and instructing a transceiver to advertise to a first display device in accordance with one or more communication variables based upon the one or more communication conditions. The method then transmits the estimated analyte measurement values to the at least first display device. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2021Publication date: November 25, 2021Inventors: Douglas William Burnette, Eric Cohen, Jason Halac, Hari Hampapuram, Lauren Hruby Jepson, Shawn Larvenz, Aditya Mandapaka, Michael Robert Mensinger, Jorge Valdes, Jeffrey R.
