Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

One or more embodiments of the disclosure relate, generally, to a diabetes management system. The diabetes management system may include a computing device that is configured to receive data relating to prior insulin use of a user and calculate a sliding scale glucose correction based, at least in part, on the data relating to prior insulin use.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 - 20 . (canceled) 21 . A diabetes management system, comprising: an on-body unit configured to be worn on a skin surface of a user, the on-body unit comprising: a glucose sensor configured to be in contact with a bodily fluid of the user and measure glucose levels of the user; and sensor electronics coupled to the glucose sensor and configured to wirelessly transmit glucose data of the user; a pen cap releasably coupleable to a manual insulin delivery device; and a processor in wireless communication with the on-body unit and the pen cap, the processor coupled to a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the processor to perform operations comprising: displaying a plurality of meal categories; receiving, from an input device, an insulin dose amount for each meal category of the plurality of meal categories; and determining a dose recommendation based at least in part on the plurality of meal categories and the insulin dose amount for each meal category. 22 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the plurality of meal categories comprises a meal size. 23 . The system of claim 22 , wherein the meal size comprises a small meal, a medium meal, or a large meal. 24 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the plurality of meal categories comprises a meal time. 25 . The system of claim 24 , wherein the meal time comprises a breakfast time, a lunch time, a dinner time, or a snack time. 26 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the plurality of meal categories comprises a carbohydrate amount. 27 . The system of claim 26 , wherein the carbohydrate amount comprises a first carbohydrate amount, a second carbohydrate amount, or a third carbohydrate amount. 28 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the operations further comprise displaying the dose recommendation on the pen cap. 29 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the operations further comprise providing the dose recommendation to the user based at least in part on a time of day. 30 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the operations further comprise providing the dose recommendation to the user based at least in part on the plurality of meal categories. 31 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the operations further comprise providing the dose recommendation to the user based at least in part on receiving a user request. 32 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the operations further comprise determining a dose recommendation for each meal category. 33 . The system of claim 32 , wherein the operations further comprise updating the dose recommendation for each meal category based on a time of day. 34 . The system of claim 32 , wherein the operations further comprise displaying the dose recommendation for each meal category on the pen cap. 35 . A method of managing diabetes, the method comprising: receiving, by at least one processor, glucose data of a user from an on-body unit configured to be worn on a skin surface of the user, the on-body unit comprising: a glucose sensor configured to be in contact with a bodily fluid of the user and measure glucose levels of the user; and sensor electronics coupled to the glucose sensor and configured to wirelessly transmit glucose data of the user; displaying, by the at least one processor, a plurality of meal categories; receiving, by the at least one processor, an insulin dose amount for each meal category of the plurality of meal categories; and determining, by the at least one processor, a dose recommendation based at least in part on the plurality of meal categories and the insulin dose amount for each meal category. 36 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the plurality of meal categories comprises a meal size, a meal time, a carbohydrate amount, or a combination thereof. 37 . The method of claim 35 , further comprising displaying the dose recommendation on a pen cap releasably coupleable to a manual insulin delivery device. 38 . The method of claim 35 , further comprising calculating a sliding scale glucose correction table based at least in part on at least one data point relating to prior insulin use of the user. 39 . The method of claim 39 , wherein the dose recommendation is based at least in part on the glucose data and the sliding scale glucose correction table. 40 . A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: receiving glucose data of a user from an on-body unit configured to be worn on a skin surface of the user, the on-body unit comprising: a glucose sensor configured to be in contact with a bodily fluid of the user and measure glucose levels of the user; and sensor electronics coupled to the glucose sensor and configured to wirelessly transmit glucose data of the user; displaying a plurality of meal categories; receiving an insulin dose amount for each meal category of the plurality of meal categories; and determining a dose recommendation based at least in part on the plurality of meal categories and the insulin dose amount for each meal category.
