  • Patent number: 11963801
    Abstract: A system and method provides a glucose report for determining glycemic risk based on an ambulatory glucose profile of glucose data over a time period, a glucose control assessment based on median and variability of glucose, and indicators of high glucose variability. Time of day periods are shown at which glucose levels can be seen. A median glucose goal and a low glucose line provide coupled with glucose variability provide a view into effects that raising or lowering the median goal would have. Likelihood of low glucose, median glucose compared to goal, and variability of glucose below median provide probabilities based on glucose data. Patterns can be seen and provide guidance for treatment.

  • Publication number: 20230215521
    Abstract: A method of providing personalized treatment for a diabetes patient including a remote device which is configured to receive a first data indicative of an analyte level of a subject during a first time period, retrieve a first glycated hemoglobin level for the subject associated with the first time period, calculate a first personal apparent glycation ratio for the first time period using the received first data and the retrieved first glycated hemoglobin level, compare the calculated first personal apparent glycation ratio to a representative apparent glycation ratio, generate a recommendation based on the comparison, and display a graphical interface comprising the calculated first personal apparent glycation ratio, the representative apparent glycation ratio, and the comparison.

  • Publication number: 20230061350
    Abstract: Physiological parameters that related to the kinetics of red blood cell hemoglobin glycation, red blood cell elimination, and red blood cell generation within the body of a subject can be used, for example, to calculate a more reliable calculated HbA1c (cHbA1c), adjusted HbA1c (aHbA1c), and/or a personalized target glucose range, among other things, for subject-personalized diagnoses, treatments, and/or monitoring protocols. Such physiological parameters may be determined using a model that considers cross-membrane glucose transport and glycation.

  • Publication number: 20230024262
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems may use a kinetic model to determine physiological parameters related to the kinetics of red blood cell glycation, elimination, and generation. Such physiological parameters can be used, for example, to determine a more reliable calculated HbA1c. In another example, a method may comprise: receiving a plurality of glucose levels over a time period; receiving a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level corresponding to an end of the time period; determining at least one physiological parameter selected from the group consisting of: a red blood cell glycation rate constant (kgly), a red blood cell generation rate constant (kgen), a red blood cell elimination constant (kage), and an apparent glycation constant (K), based on (1) the plurality of glucose levels and (2) the HbA1c level; and adjusting a glucose level target based on the at least one physiological parameter.

  • Publication number: 20230027904
    Abstract: A method for deriving physiological parameters may include: measuring a glucose level of a subject over time; measuring a HbA1c of individual red blood cells in a sample comprising a plurality of red blood cells; deriving a measured cellular HbA1c distribution of the sample; and calculating at least one physiological parameter selected from the group consisting of (a) a red blood cell elimination constant (kage), (b) a red blood cell glycation rate constant (kgly), and/or (c) an apparent glycation constant (K) based on the measured cellular HbA1c distribution and the glucose levels of the subject over time.

    Abstract: A system and method to provide guidance for diabetes therapy includes determining glycemic risks based on an analysis of glucose data. The analysis includes visualization of a glucose median, the variability of glucose in a patient, and the risk of hypoglycemia. An Advanced Daily Patterns report includes a visualization of an ambulatory glucose profile and a glucose control measure. The glucose control measure provides a highly visible and understandable display of the glucose condition of a patient visually expressed in the categories of low glucose, median glucose, and glucose variability.
