Abstract

Methods and apparatus for providing data processing and control for use in a medical communication system are provided.

Claims (40)

1. A method for notifying a user about an alarm condition without causing interruption to a predetermined routine, the method comprising:

executing a concurrent passive notification routine on a receiver unit, the concurrent passive notification routine comprising monitoring analyte levels received from a sensor;

detecting the alarm condition based on the monitored analyte levels during execution of the predetermined routine, wherein the predetermined routine comprises one or more processes that interface with a user interface of the receiver unit;

in response to detecting the alarm condition, outputting to the user interface a first indication associated with the detected alarm condition, wherein the first indication is outputted during the execution of and without interruption to the predetermined routine; and

after completion of the predetermined routine, outputting to the user interface another indication associated with the detected alarm condition.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first indication comprises a visual indicator.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the another indication comprises a visual indicator.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first indication comprises a temporary indicator.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first indication is active during the execution of the predetermined routine, and is inactive at the end of the predetermined routine.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the another indication is active after the end of the predetermined routine.

7. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first indication further comprises a text notification configured to be outputted to the user interface.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the another indication comprises a predetermined alarm notification associated with the detected alarm condition.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first indication comprises an audible indicator or a vibratory indicator.

10. A receiver unit for notifying a user about an alarm condition without causing interruption to a predetermined routine, the receiver unit comprising:

a user interface comprising a touch-sensitive screen of a display; and

a processor configured to:

execute a concurrent passive notification routine on the receiver unit to monitor analyte levels received from a sensor; and

detect the alarm condition based on the monitored analyte levels during execution of the predetermined routine, wherein the predetermined routine comprises one or more processes that interface with the user interface of the receiver unit;

wherein the processor is further configured to, in response to detecting the alarm condition, output to the user interface a first indication associated with the detected alarm condition during the execution of and without interruption to the predetermined routine, and

wherein the processor is further configured to, after completion of the predetermined routine, output to the user interface another indication associated with the detected alarm condition.

11. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the first indication comprises a visual indicator.

12. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the another indication comprises a visual indicator.

13. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the first indication comprises a temporary indicator.

14. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the first indication is active during the execution of the predetermined routine, and is inactive at the end of the predetermined routine.

15. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the another indication is active after the end of the predetermined routine.

16. The receiver unit of claim 11 , wherein the first indication further comprises a text notification configured to be outputted to the user interface.

17. The receiver unit of claim 11 , wherein the first indication further comprises a graphical notification.

18. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the first indication comprises an audible indicator.

19. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the first indication comprises a vibratory indicator.

20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to configure settings of the receiver unit.

21. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to review historical glucose data.

22. The method of claim 21 , wherein the historical glucose data comprises historical indications, events, or entries in a data log.

23. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to manage a data communication setting.

24. The method of claim 1 , wherein the receiver unit is configured to store an identification information of a transmitter to identify the transmitter during data communication with the transmitter.

25. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to configure settings of the receiver unit.

26. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to review historical glucose data.

27. The receiver unit of claim 26 , wherein the historical glucose data comprises historical indications, events, or entries in a data log.

28. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the predetermined routine comprises a routine to manage a data communication setting.

29. The receiver unit of claim 10 , wherein the receiver unit is configured to store an identification information of a transmitter to identify the transmitter during data communication with the transmitter.

30. The receiver unit of claim 13 , wherein the temporary indicator comprises a temporary text output on the display of the receiver unit to alert the user of the detected alarm condition in real time.
