Abstract

A method may include displaying at least three icons on a user interface of a mobile device, including a first icon associated with the at least three icons associated with a first carbohydrate level, a second icon associated with the at least three icons associated with a second carbohydrate level, and a third icon associated with the at least three icons associated with a third carbohydrate level. The method may also include receiving a user selection of one of the three icons through the user interface of the mobile device, and determining an insulin bolus level from the user selection. The method may also include communicating the insulin bolus level to an insulin delivery device.

First claim

1 - 20 . (canceled)

21 . A glucose monitoring system, comprising:
an in vivo glucose sensor configured to measure glucose levels in a bodily fluid of a user; and a pen cap configured to be secured to an insulin pen that delivers insulin to the user, the pen cap comprising;
a user interface configured to display information to the user, the user interface comprising at least a first meal announcement button and a second meal announcement button;
a memory configured to store data comprising a first amount of carbohydrates associated with the first meal announcement button and a second amount of carbohydrates associated with the second meal announcement button; and
a processor in communication with the in vivo glucose sensor to receive the glucose levels, the processor configured to:
receive a selection of the first meal announcement button;
determine a first recommended insulin dose based on the first amount of carbohydrates;
display the first recommended insulin dose on the user interface;
adjust the first amount of carbohydrates associated with the first meal announcement button based on glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button;
receive a second selection of the first meal announcement button after adjusting the first amount of carbohydrates;
determine a second recommended insulin dose based on the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates; and
display the second recommended insulin dose on the user interface.

22 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the second amount of carbohydrates is different from the first amount of carbohydrates.

23 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the first recommended insulin dose based on the first amount of carbohydrates and the glucose levels.

24 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button are received from 1 hour to 3 hours after the selection of the first meal announcement button.

25 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust the first amount of carbohydrates when the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button rise above an upper glucose threshold or drop below a lower glucose threshold.

26 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 25 , wherein the first amount of carbohydrates is increased in proportion to an amount by which the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button rise above the upper glucose threshold.

27 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 25 , wherein the first amount of carbohydrates is decreased in proportion to an amount by which the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button drop below the lower glucose threshold.

28 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the first amount of carbohydrates is based on a total daily dose of insulin for the user.

29 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust the second amount of carbohydrates associated with the second meal announcement button based on the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates.

30 . The glucose monitoring system of claim 29 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust the second amount of carbohydrates associated with the second meal announcement button to maintain a minimum difference between the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates and the adjusted second amount of carbohydrates.

31 . A method, comprising:
displaying, on a user interface of a pen cap configured to be secured to an insulin pen, at least a first meal announcement button and a second meal announcement button, wherein a first amount of carbohydrates is associated with the first meal announcement button and a second amount of carbohydrates is associated with the second meal announcement button; receiving, by a processor in communication with an in vivo glucose sensor configured to measure glucose levels in a bodily fluid of a user, the glucose levels; receiving, by the processor, a selection of the first meal announcement button; determining, by the processor, a first recommended insulin dose based on the first amount of carbohydrates; displaying, on the user interface, the first recommended insulin dose; adjusting, by the processor, the first amount of carbohydrates associated with the first meal announcement button based on glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button; receiving, by the processor, a second selection of the first meal announcement button after adjusting the first amount of carbohydrates; determining, by the processor, a second recommended insulin dose based on the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates; and displaying, on the user interface, the second recommended insulin dose.

32 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the second amount of carbohydrates is different from the first amount of carbohydrates.

33 . The method of claim 31 , further comprising determining, by the processor, the first recommended insulin dose based on the first amount of carbohydrates and the glucose levels.

34 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button are received from 1 hour to 3 hours after the selection of the first meal announcement button.

35 . The method of claim 31 , comprising adjusting, by the processor, the first amount of carbohydrates when the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button rise above an upper glucose threshold or drop below a lower glucose threshold.

36 . The method of claim 35 , comprising increasing, by the processor, the first amount of carbohydrates in proportion to an amount by which the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button rise above the upper glucose threshold.

37 . The method of claim 35 , comprising decreasing, by the processor, the first amount of carbohydrates in proportion to an amount by which the glucose levels received after the selection of the first meal announcement button drop below the lower glucose threshold.

38 . The method of claim 31 , comprising adjusting, by the processor, the second amount of carbohydrates associated with the second meal announcement button based on the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates.

39 . The method of claim 38 , comprising adjusting, by the processor, the second amount of carbohydrates associated with the second meal announcement button to maintain a minimum difference between the adjusted first amount of carbohydrates and the adjusted second amount of carbohydrates.

40 . One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media containing instructions that, in response to being executed by one or more processors, cause a pen cap configured to be secured to an insulin pen to perform operations comprising:
storing data comprising a first amount of carbohydrates associated with a first meal announcement button and a second amount of carbohydrates associated with a second meal announcement button; causing display of at least the first meal announcement button and the second meal announcement button; receiving glucose levels measured in a bodily fluid of a user; receiving a selection of the first meal announcement button; determining a first recommended insulin dose based on the first amount o
