Benefits of technology

[0006]A system that continuously adapts based on collected information to provide an individually tailored configuration is believed to improve widespread adoption by adaptively and interactively improving healthcare assistance for chronic management of disease in a

Problems solved by technology

In the diabetic state, the victim suffers from high glucose, which may cause an array of physiological derangements (for example, kidney failure, skin ulcers, or bleeding into the vitreous of the eye) associated with the deterioration of small blood vessels.
Due to the lack of comfort and convenience associated with finger pricks, a person with diabetes normally only measures his or her glucose levels two to four times per day.
Unfortunately, time intervals between measurements can be spread far enough apart that t

Embodiment Construction

[0042]Consider the specific example of continuous glucose monitoring. For diabetics, the glucose monitor can literally be the difference between life and death. Characteristics of the users of glucose monitors vary on many dimensions. Each has their own medical needs. Each user has an individual level of technical sophistication. Each user has their unique educational background, language, and cultural references. Each user participates in their own set of activities at varying degrees of intensity. Furthermore, characteristics are not static, that is, they may change over time. These are but a few factors which may influence how, when, and why a patient uses (or chooses to ignore) their glucose monitor.

[0043]One non-limiting advantage of the described features is to provide an interface which is adapted to the patient. The adaptation considers active and / or passive data associated with the patient to generate an interface suited to the patient's unique characteristics and behavior....

Abstract

Systems and methods that continuously adapt aspects of a continuous monitoring device based on collected information to provide an individually tailored configuration are described. The adaptations may include adapting the user interface, the alerting, the motivational messages, the training, and the like. Such adaptation can allow a patient to more readily identify and understand the information provided by/via the device.

Description

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]Any and all priority claims identified in the Application Data Sheet, or any correction thereto, are hereby incorporated by reference under 37 CFR 1.57. This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 14 / 525,622, filed Oct. 28, 2014, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 898,300, filed Oct. 31, 2013. Each of the aforementioned applications is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, and each is hereby expressly made a part of this specification.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present development relates generally to medical devices such as a continuous glucose sensor, including systems and methods for adaptive interface processing of sensor data.BACKGROUND[0003]Diabetes mellitus is a disorder in which the pancreas cannot create sufficient insulin (Type I or insulin dependent) and / or in which insulin is not effective (Type 2 or non-insulin dependent). In the diabetic state, the ...
