Abstract

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for backfilling. In some example embodiments, there is provided a method that includes receiving, at a receiver, backfill data representative of sensor data stored, at a continuous blood glucose sensor and transmitter assembly, due to a loss of a wireless link between the receiver and the continuous blood glucose sensor and transmitter assembly; generating, at the receiver, at least one of a notification or a graphically distinct indicator for presentation at a display of the receiver, the at least one of the notification or the graphically distinct indicator enabling the backfill data to be graphically distinguished, when presented at the display, from non-backfill data; and generating, at the receiver, a view including the backfill data, the non-backfill data, and the generated at least one of the notification or the graphically distinct indicator. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

Claims (45)

1 . A method comprising:

transmitting, by an analyte sensor system, at least one advertisement at a first time;

receiving, at the analyte sensor system, a data connection request from a user equipment at a second time;

establishing, by the analyte sensor system, the data connection with the user equipment;

transmitting, by the analyte sensor system, an analyte value to the user equipment;

storing, at the analyte sensor system, analyte data as backfill data, when an error occurs in the transmitting the at least one advertisement, the establishing the data connection, and/or the transmitting the analyte value; and

transmitting, by the analyte sensor system, the stored backfill data.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stored backfill data is transmitted, when another data connection is established to the user equipment.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stored backfill data is transmitted via one or more other advertisements.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing, before the establishing of the data connection and/or the other data connection, an authentication.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing, at the analyte sensor system, analyte data as backfill data, when an error occurs in the authenticating.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the error represents a state in which the transmitting the at least one advertisement, the establishing the data connection, the transmitting the analyte value, and/or the authenticating are not successful.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the user equipment comprises a mobile wireless device, a smart phone, a tablet, and/or a display device.

8 . An apparatus comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory including computer program code which when executed causes operations comprising:

transmitting, by the apparatus, at least one advertisement at a first time;

receiving, at the apparatus, a data connection request from a user equipment at a second time;

establishing, by the apparatus, the data connection with the user equipment;

transmitting, by the apparatus, an analyte value to the user equipment;

storing, at the apparatus, analyte data as backfill data, when an error occurs in the transmitting the at least one advertisement, the establishing the data connection, and/or the transmitting the analyte value; and

transmitting, by the apparatus, the stored backfill data.

9 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the stored backfill data is transmitted, when another data connection is established to the user equipment.

10 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the stored backfill data is transmitted via one or more other advertisements.

11 . The apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising:

performing, before the establishing of the data connection and/or the other data connection, an authentication.

12 . The apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising:

storing, at the apparatus, analyte data as backfill data, when an error occurs in the authenticating.

13 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the error represents a state in which the transmitting the at least one advertisement, the establishing the data connection, the transmitting the analyte value, and/or the authenticating are not successful.

14 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the user equipment comprises a mobile wireless device, a smart phone, a tablet, and/or a display device.

15 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the apparatus comprises an analyte sensor system.

16 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a user equipment, at least one advertisement at a first time from an analyte sensor system;

transmitting, by the user equipment, a data connection request to the analyte sensor system at a second time;

establishing the data connection with the analyte sensor system;

receiving, by the user equipment, an analyte value from the analyte sensor system; and

receiving, by the user equipment, backfill data stored at the analyte sensor system, when an error occurs.

17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the stored backfill data is received, when another data connection is established.

18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the stored backfill data is received via one or more other advertisements.

19 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

performing, before the establishing of a data connection, an authentication.

20 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the error represents a state in which the receiving the at least one advertisement, the transmitting the data connection request, the establishing the data connection, the receiving the analyte value, and/or the authentication are not successful.

21 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the user equipment comprises a mobile wireless device, a smart phone, a tablet, and/or a display device.
