METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING DATA PROCESSING AND CONTROL IN A MEDICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Methods and apparatus for providing data processing and control for use in a medical communication system are provided.
1 . A method of determining analyte information, comprising:
receiving, at a receiving device, a current signal associated with a monitored analyte level from an in vivo analyte sensor by a communication protocol;
retrieving stored signals associated with the monitored analyte level;
determining that more than a predetermined number of a combination of the retrieved stored signals and the current signal are corrupt; and
in response to determining that more than the predetermined number of the combination of the retrieved stored signals and the current signal are corrupt, temporarily disabling an alarm from being output by the receiving device.
2 . A device for determining analyte information, comprising:
a communication component;
an alarm component to output an alarm;
one or more processors; and
a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors,
cause the one or more processors to:
receive, at a receiving device, a current signal associated with a monitored analyte level from an in vivo analyte sensor by a communication protocol;
retrieve stored signals associated with the monitored analyte level;
determine that more than a predetermined number of a combination of the retrieved stored signals and the current signal are corrupt; and
in response to the determination that more than the predetermined number of the combination of the retrieved stored signals and the current signal are corrupt, temporarily disable the alarm from being output.
