Abstract: According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a device and method for determining an allowable amount of blood glucose (bG) of a patient is disclosed. The method further includes receiving a current bG measurement, determining a target bG value, and determining a correction delta bG value based on one or more advice history records. The method includes determining a correction meal rise value and determining a maximum allowed bG value based on the target bG value, the correction delta bG value, and the correction meal rise value. The method includes setting the allowable amount of bG value equal to the maximum allowed bG value when the current bG measurement is greater than the target bG value and determining the allowable amount of bG value using the target bG value and the correction delta bG value when the current bG measurement is less than the target bG value.

Abstract: A device and method for delivering insulin to a patient is disclosed. The method includes receiving an amount of insulin to deliver to a patient and beginning delivery of the insulin to the patient. The method further includes monitoring the delivery of the insulin to determine whether the insulin pump is able to deliver the entire amount of insulin and maintaining a timer until the insulin pump recommences the delivery of the insulin. The method includes comparing an amount of time indicated by the timer to a threshold. The method further includes generating a first insulin delivery record indicating that a first amount of insulin was delivered when the amount of time indicated by the timer is less than the threshold and a second insulin record indicating that a second amount of insulin was delivered when the amount of time indicated by the timer is greater than the threshold.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is presented for recommending insulin dosage adjustments for a patient having diabetes. The method includes: identifying a plurality of bolus events from patient data; grouping bolus events having a recommended bolus dosage substantially equivalent to the amount of administered insulin into a first subset of bolus events; determining a bolus outcome for each of the bolus events in the first subset of bolus events, where the bolus outcome is expressed in relation to a target range of blood glucose values and is selected from a group including above the target range, in the target range and below the target range; determining whether one of the bolus outcomes is predominant amongst the bolus events in the first subset of bolus events; and generating a recommendation pertaining to insulin dosage for the patient in response to a determination that one of the bolus outcomes is predominant.

Abstract: According to some aspects of the present disclosure a method for presenting a GUI for modifying medical data on a handheld medical device is disclosed. The method includes determining a correction bolus amount and a meal bolus amount for the patient. The method also includes presenting the GUI on a display of the medical device and presenting the correction bolus amount, the meal bolus amount and a total bolus amount in the GUI. The method also includes presenting a correction bolus amount modification field and a meal bolus amount field in the GUI. The correction bolus amount modification field and the meal bolus amount modification field allow the patient to provide input to modify the correction bolus amount and meal bolus amount, respectively. The method further includes receiving the input and generating an advice history record based on the input.
