  • Publication number: 20240377383
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of processing data provided by a transcutaneous or subcutaneous glucose sensor utilizing different algorithms to strike a balance between signal responsiveness accompanied by signal noise and the introduction of error associated with that noise. The methods utilize the strengths of a lag correction algorithm and a smoothing algorithm to optimize the quality and value of the resulting data (glucose concentrations and the rates of change in glucose concentrations) to a continuous glucose monitoring system. Also provided are systems and kits.

  • Publication number: 20240358919
    Abstract: Systems comprising: an analyte sensor for providing an analyte signal representative of an analyte level; a controller in data communication with the analyte sensor and programmed to provide a recommended medication dose based on the analyte level and a medication type, the controller comprising a user interface for inputting the medication type; and a model-based safety mechanism integrated with the controller for evaluating the recommended medication dose. Wherein the model-based safety mechanism overrides the recommended medication dose and provides a safety medication dose when the model-based safety mechanism detects a risk of insulin deprivation.

  • Patent number: 11730429
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an analyte monitoring device having a user interface with a display and a plurality of actuators. The display is configured to render a plurality of display screens, including a home screen and an alert screen. The home screen is divided into a plurality of simultaneously displayed panels, with a first panel displays a rate of change of continuously monitored analyte levels in interstitial fluid, a second panel simultaneously displays a current analyte level and an analyte trend indicator, and a third panel displays status information of a plurality of components of the device. When an alarm condition is detected, the display renders the alert screen in place of the home screen, the alert screen displaying information corresponding to the detected alarm condition. Furthermore, the actuators are configured to affect further output of the analyte monitoring device corresponding to the detected condition.
