A diabetes management system adapted to determine adherence for a subject in treatment according to a basal insulin regimen, the system being adapted to receive regimen data. BG data and insulin injection data. If one or more insulin injections have not been received in accordance with the prescribed regimen and thus are missing, the system is adapted to calculate for each missing injection an expected dose response BG value. By comparing received BG data, corresponding to the missing insulin injections, it can be determined for a given confidence interval whether or not the subject has been in adherence with the basal insulin regimen.

A system for determining a deficiency in an infusion rate for a user has a processor, a display, a memory and, optionally, one or more of a pump and an analyte monitor. The processor receives measured glucose values that each have a timestamp indicating the time / date of measurement. The processor determines whether the glucose values include n pairs of glucose values g01 to n and g1to n, where each pair of glucose values fulfils a predefined set of criteria obtained from the memory. Pairing values are determined based on the glucose values g0x and g1x. The pairing values are compared to threshold values obtained from the memory. Exceeding or falling below the threshold values indicates a deficiency of the basal insulin rate of the patient.

Exemplary embodiments may attempt to account for more substantial deviations in a user's basal insulin needs and reduce or eliminate glucose level excursions that may result from such deviations more quickly than conventional insulin pump systems. The exemplary embodiments may rely upon a user's recent basal insulin delivery history to establish a current estimate of the user's basal insulin needs. Exemplary embodiments may calculate a reliability metric for a TDI value that reflects that degree of variance in TDI value for a user over a recent period, such as over multiple days or weeks. The reliability indicator may be used to adjust the TDI value that is used to establish a user's daily basal insulin needs and hourly basal insulin needs. In determining a user's basal insulin needs, the exemplary embodiments may not only look to recent basal insulin deliveries but also may account for correction boluses and / or meal boluses.
