The present disclosure refers to a method for determining a blood glucose level for a patient, the method comprising detecting a present sensor signal in a present continuous interstitial blood glucose measurement for a patient; providing measurement data representing the present sensor signal; providing sensor signal correction data representing a patient-specific signal correction, the sensor signal correction data being determined from a former interstitial blood glucose measurement for the patient and comprising at least one of time delay data representing a patient-specific time delay &#x394;t between a blood glucose value measured in a continuous interstitial blood glucose measurement and a blood glucose reference value measured in a capillary blood glucose measurement, and sensor sensitivity data representing, for the patient, a patient-specific sensor sensitivity for the sensor, determining corrected measurement data representing a corrected present sensor signal by applying the sensor signal correction data to the present sensor signal; and determining a blood glucose level for the patient from the corrected measurement data.

Method and system for method for determining a blood glucose level for a patient

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.

A method for calibrating a handheld diabetes managing device based on data generated by a continuous glucose monitor. The method can include sampling a current of the continuous glucose monitor at a sampling interval over a time period to generate a plurality of current samples for the time period. The method can also include determining a mean, median and standard deviation of the plurality of current samples. The blood glucose level of the patient can be measured at a first time and a calibration equation that associates the plurality of current samples with the estimated glucose level of the patient based on the measured blood glucose level and the plurality of current samples can be determined when the standard deviation is less than a first threshold and an absolute value of a difference between the mean and median is less than a second threshold.
