Abstract
Persons with diabetes often carry a handheld glucose meter as well as a portable computing device, such as a mobile phone. Given the close proximity of these two devices, the portable computing device can serve as a data collector for the glucose measures taken by the glucose meter. Improved techniques are set forth for transferring glucose measures automatically and seamlessly to the patient's portable computing device, including displaying a value for the glucose measure along with an identifier for the portable computing device on a display of the glucose meter during the data exchange with the portable computing device.
