  • Publication number: 20240071593
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

  • Patent number: 11903697
    Abstract: 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. The mode switching generally affects the user's interaction with the device, and not just internal processing. The mode switching may relate to calibration modes, data transmission modes, control modes, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20220202320
    Abstract: User interfaces for glucose insight presentation are leveraged. A glucose monitoring application is configured to process glucose measurements to determine one or more glucose insights, e.g., about a user's glucose. The glucose measurements, for example, may be obtained from a glucose monitoring device that collects glucose measurements of the user at predetermined intervals, e.g., every five minutes. The glucose monitoring application configures a user interface, based on configuration data, to present one or more visual elements representative of the one or more glucose insights. For example, the glucose monitoring application may configure the user interface to include a visual element in the form of a color field which represents whether the user's current glucose measurement (e.g., the most recent glucose measurement obtained from the glucose monitoring device) is below, within, or above a glucose range.

  • Publication number: 20220202319
    Abstract: Meal and activity logging with a glucose monitoring interface is described. A glucose monitoring application is configured to display a user interface that includes a glucose graph that plots glucose measurements of a user over time. The glucose measurements, for example, may be obtained from a glucose monitoring device that collects glucose measurements of the user at predetermined intervals, e.g., every five minutes. Unlike conventional event logging approaches, the glucose monitoring application displays representations of logged events in the user interface along with the glucose graph. The logged events, for example, may include meals consumed by the user, and/or various activities performed by the user, such as exercise, meditation, sleep, and so forth. Notably, the glucose monitoring application controls the display of the event representations to be presented at positions on the glucose graph that correspond to times associated with the respective events.

  • Publication number: 20220061712
    Abstract: Data describing glucose measurements is received from a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system worn by a user and predicted glucose values during a future time period are generated for the user based on the data. A determination is made that at least one of the predicted glucose values satisfies a threshold value for an alert, which is associated with a prediction horizon that defines an amount of time prior to satisfaction of the threshold value for communicating the alert to the user. Output of the alert is caused responsive to determining that the at least one predicted glucose value satisfies the threshold value for the alert within the prediction horizon, relative to a current time. The prediction horizon is modified based on a user response to the alert. Output of a subsequent instance of the alert is caused based on the modified prediction horizon.

  • Publication number: 20210378563
    Abstract: Glucose measurement and glucose-impacting event prediction using a stack of machine learning models is described. A CGM platform includes stacked machine learning models, such that an output generated by one of the machine learning models can be provided as input to another one of the machine learning models. The multiple machine learning models include at least one model trained to generate a glucose measurement prediction and another model trained to generate an event prediction, for an upcoming time interval. Each of the stacked machine learning models is configured to generate its respective output when provided as input at least one of glucose measurements provided by a CGM system worn by the user or additional data describing user behavior or other aspects that impact a person's glucose in the future. Predictions may then be output, such as via communication and/or display of a notification about the corresponding prediction.
