Medical device management system
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for calibrating medical devices and processing physiological measurements using a medical device management system. As an example, the medical device can be a handheld glucometer configured for invasive testing and non-invasive testing of physiological parameters of a patient.
1. A method for processing physiological measurements, the method comprising:
automatically initiating, by a medical device management system, a calibration mode on a portable medical device based on an analysis of physiological measurement data received from the portable medical device, wherein, after the initiation of the calibration mode, the calibration mode locks the portable medical device from performing further non-invasive blood glucose measurement until calibration is completed, wherein the medical device management system communicates with the portable medical device over a wireless communication network and remotely initiates the calibration mode on the portable medical device;
receiving, by the medical device management system, first physiological measurement data from a portable medical device, wherein the first physiological measurement data comprises identification information associated with a user of the portable medical device, invasive blood glucose measurement data, and non-invasive blood glucose measurement data, wherein the non-invasive blood glucose measurement data is based on data generated by an optical sensor of the portable medical device during a non-invasive glucose measurement of the user, wherein the invasive blood glucose measurement data is generated based on a user blood sample received by the portable medical device;
identifying, by the medical device management system, a first user account of the medical device management system based on the identification information;
processing, by the medical device management system, the first physiological measurement data to update a user specific calibration associated with the first user account, wherein the user specific calibration is based at least in part on the invasive blood glucose measurement data and the non-invasive blood glucose measurement data;
providing, by the medical device management system, an indication to the portable medical device that calibration is complete, wherein the portable medical device transitions to a measurement mode;
after completion of the calibration, receiving, by the medical device management system, second physiological measurement data from the portable medical device, the second physiological measurement data comprising identification information associated with the first user account and second non-invasive blood glucose measurement data;
processing, by the medical device management system, the second physiological measurement data to determine a first non-invasive blood glucose measurement associated with the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement data based at least in part on the user specific calibration associated with the first user account;
transmitting, by the medical device management system, the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement to the portable medical device for display; and
storing, by the medical device management system, the second physiological measurement data and the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement in the first user account.
2. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement to a user account different from the first user account based on one or more privacy settings of the identified user account.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the medical device is a glucometer.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the physiological measurement data comprises non-invasive physiological measurement data.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the physiological measurement data comprises invasive physiological test data.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the physiological measurement data is contained in an XML file.
7. A medical device management system comprising:
a data store configured to store user account information associated with a plurality of user accounts; and
a computing device in communication with the data store, the computing device configured to:
automatically initiate a calibration mode on a portable medical device based on an analysis of physiological measurement data received from the portable medical device, wherein, after the initiation of the calibration mode, the calibration mode locks the portable medical device from performing further non-invasive blood glucose measurement until calibration is completed, wherein the medical device management system communicates with the portable medical device over a wireless communication network and remotely initiates the calibration mode on the portable medical device;
receive first physiological measurement data including invasive blood glucose measurement data and non-invasive blood glucose measurement data, wherein the non-invasive blood glucose measurement data is based on data generated by an optical sensor of the portable medical device during a non-invasive glucose measurement of a user, wherein the invasive blood glucose measurement data is generated based on a user blood sample received by the portable medical device;
identify a first user account of the plurality of user accounts associated with the measurement request;
process the first physiological measurement data to update a user specific calibration associated with the first user account, wherein the user specific calibration is based at least in part on the invasive blood glucose measurement data and the non-invasive blood glucose measurement data;
provide an indication to the portable medical device that calibration is complete, wherein the portable medical device transitions to a measurement mode;
after completion of the calibration, receive, by the medical device management system, second physiological measurement data from the portable medical device, the second physiological measurement data comprising identification information associated with the first user account and second non-invasive blood glucose measurement data;
process the second physiological measurement data to determine a first non-invasive blood glucose measurement associated with the physiological measurement data based at least in part on a user specific calibration associated with the first user account;
transmit the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement to the portable medical device for display; and
store the physiological measurement data and the first non-invasive blood glucose measurement in the first user account.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the physiological measurement data comprises measurement data associated with at least one or more additional physiological parameters including at least one of invasive glucose testing, Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), Total Hemoglobin (SpHb), Alkaline Phosphatase (SpALP), Total Cholesterol (SpChol), High-Density Lipoprotein (SpHDL), or Total Cholesterol Divided by High Density Lipoprotein (SpChol/SpHDL).
