Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatuses that provide alerts based on analyte data and acceleration data. An analyte sensor may generate the analyte data. An accelerometer may generate the acceleration data. A transceiver may convert the analyte data into analyte concentration values. The transceiver may convert the acceleration data into activity information. The transceiver may generate an alert based on the analyte concentration values and activity information. The alert may be communicated to a user by a mobile medical application executed on the transceiver and/or a display device (e.g., smartphone) in communication with the transceiver. The mobile medical application may display (e.g., on a display of the display device) a plot or graph of the analyte concentration values and activity information with respect to time.

Claims (48)

1. A system comprising:

an analyte sensor configured to generate analyte data;

an accelerometer configured to generate acceleration data corresponding to movement of the accelerometer;

a display device; and

a wearable transceiver comprising a memory, a display device interface, and a controller configured to (i) store the analyte data in the memory with the acceleration data and date and time information and (ii) cause the display device interface to convey the analyte data, the acceleration data, and the date and time information to the display device;

wherein the display device is configured to (i) receive the analyte data, the acceleration data, and the date and time information conveyed by the display device interface of the wearable transceiver and (ii) calculate a current analyte concentration value using at least the analyte data and the acceleration data.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display device is configured to generate activity information based on the acceleration data, and calculating the current analyte concentration value using at least the analyte data and the acceleration data comprises calculating the current analyte concentration value using at least the analyte data and the activity information generated based on the acceleration data.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable transceiver comprises the accelerometer.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display device interface comprises an antenna.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display device interface comprises a wireless communication integrated circuit.

6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an adhesive patch configured to hold the wearable transceiver in place on a body of a patient.

7. A system of claim 2 , comprising:

an analyte sensor configured to generate analyte data;

an accelerometer configured to generate acceleration data corresponding to movement of the accelerometer;

a wearable transceiver comprising a memory, a display device interface, and a controller configured to store the analyte data in the memory with the acceleration data and date and time information;

a display device configured to (i) receive the analyte data, the acceleration data, and the date and time information conveyed by the wearable transceiver and (ii) generate activity information based on the acceleration data, wherein generating the activity information based on the acceleration information comprises:

converting the acceleration data into scalar acceleration values;

comparing the scalar acceleration values to an activity threshold; and

generating the activity information based on a frequency at which the scalar acceleration values exceed the activity threshold.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the display device is configured to calculate an analyte concentration value using at least the analyte data.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the display device is configured to calculate an analyte concentration value using at least the analyte data and the activity information.
