A handheld diabetes management device for managing blood glucose test data and continuous glucose monitoring data includes a port configured to receive a test strip, a wireless transceiver, a communications processor, and a user interface processor. The communications processor communicates with the wireless transceiver to periodically collect glucose measurement data from a continuous glucose monitoring device and to store the glucose measurement data in a first data storage module. The communications processor is operable to consume electrical power at a first rate. The user interface processor communicates with the communication processor to receive the glucose measurement data and operable to display the glucose measurement data on the device. The communications processor operates asynchronously from operation of the user interface processor to collect the glucose measurement data and the user interface processor operates to consume electrical power at a second rate that is higher than the first rate.

Diabetes manager for glucose testing and continuous glucose monitoring

A method for operating measuring equipment for detecting at least one analyte in a bodily fluid by means of at least one continuously measuring blood glucose sensor. At least one calibration method is carried out for the prospective calibration of the measuring equipment. At least three calibration points are detected in the calibration method, wherein each calibration point comprises at least one measurement signal from the measuring equipment and at least one reference value of an associated reference measurement. A plurality of possible slopes are established between the calibration points. At least one robust estimation method, more particularly using a formation of at least one median, is used to determine at least one probable slope from the plurality of possible slopes. Furthermore, at least one measurement is carried out. During the measurement and using the probable slope, a concentration of the analyte in the bodily fluid is deduced from at least one measurement signal from the measuring equipment and the probable slope.

Calibration method for the prospective calibration of measuring equipment

A protective container for holding a reusable control part of a transcutaneous sensor system for detecting at least one analyte in a bodily fluid is disclosed. The control part includes at least one coupling, which has at least one sensor coupling for connection to at least one transcutaneous sensor. The protective container has at least one container housing. The control part can be held in the container housing. The container housing is adapted to shield the control part from environmental influences. The container housing also has at least one connector which can be connected to the coupling and seals the latter in a media-tight fashion.

A method is provided for controlling a hand-held analysis device for analyzing a body fluid in which in each case at least one test means for single use is automatically provided in consecutive measuring cycles by means of a control device where each measuring cycle in a measuring mode of the control device is triggered by a start actuation. According to the invention it is proposed that a defined control intervention puts the control device into a maintenance mode in which the automatic provision of a test means is prevented.

A diabetes management system having a reliable data management scheme is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of devices, each device performing a different function relating to treatment of diabetes. Each device has a device identifier and generates data records. Each device includes a metadata generator configured to generate a metadata tag for a data record generated by the device. A metadata tag includes the device identifier of the corresponding device, a record identifier, and a source identifier indicating whether the record was originated by a human or the device. The system further includes a diabetes management device. When a device generates a new record, the metadata generator generates a new record identifier and a new metadata tag based on the new record identifier and the device identifier of the device. The first device propagates the new record and the new metadata tag to the diabetes management device.
