Blood Glucose Meter And Computer-Implemented Method For Facilitating Accurate Glycemic Control By Modeling Blood Glucose Using Circadian Profiles

摘要

A blood glucose meter and computer-implemented method for facilitating accurate glycemic control by modeling blood glucose using circadian profiles is provided. Anti-hyperglycemic medications are categorized based on similar glucose lowering effects. A circadian profile is built by collecting at least two recent typical measurements of pre-meal and post-meal period data stored on a glucometer, identifying a dose of an anti-hyperglycemic medication, and identifying the class of the anti-hyperglycemic medication. A model of glucose management through the circadian profile is created by estimating expected blood glucose values and their predicted errors at each of the meal periods, visualizing the expected blood glucose values and their predicted errors over time for each meal period in a log-normal distribution, and selecting one of the meal periods and, for each anti-hyperglycemic medication in the identified class, modeling a change in the dose of the anti-hyperglycemic medication.
