Abstract

Techniques disclosed herein involve displaying, via a graphic user interface, historical physiological data of a person measured during a historical time period, and one or more historical events occurred during the historical time period; receiving a change to at least one attribute of a historical event of the one or more historical events; and displaying, via the graphic user interface, adjusted historical physiological data indicating estimated changes of the historical physiological data resulted from the change to the at least attribute of the historical event.

Claims (75)

1 . A processor-implemented method comprising:

displaying, via a graphic user interface, historical physiological data of a person obtained during a historical time period, and one or more historical events that occurred during the historical time period;

responsive to a value of the historical physiological data being outside of a range, suggesting an action to keep physiological data of the person within the range;

receiving a change to at least one attribute of a historical event of the one or more historical events; and

displaying, via the graphic user interface, adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the change to the at least one attribute of the historical event.

2 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one attribute of the historical event comprises:

a quantity of an insulin dose or a meal;

an intensity of an exercise;

a duration of the meal or the exercise;

a content of the meal;

a timing of the historical event; or

any combination thereof.

3 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the change to the at least one attribute of the historical event is received via:

a voice command;

an input through a touch screen or a touch pad;

an input through a mouse;

an input through a keyboard;

an input through a motion sensing system; or

any combination thereof.

4 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a new event to add to the historical time period, the new event selected from a menu of events.

5 . The processor-implemented method of claim 4 , further comprising:

displaying adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the new event.

6 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the adjusted historical physiological data comprises:

dynamically displaying the adjusted historical physiological data indicating the estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the change as the change is being made.

7 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request to adjust the historical time period; and

displaying historical physiological data of the person during the adjusted historical time period, and one or more historical events occurred during the adjusted historical time period.

8 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the historical physiological data and the one or more historical events occurred during the historical time period comprises:

overlaying the one or more historical events over the historical physiological data.

9 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the historical physiological data and the one or more historical events occurred during the historical time period comprises:

plotting the one or more historical events apart from the historical physiological data.

10 . The processor-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the action.

11 . A system comprising:

one or more memory devices; and

one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memory devices, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations comprising:

displaying, via a graphic user interface, historical physiological data of a person obtained during a historical time period, and one or more historical events that occurred during the historical time period;

responsive to a value of the historical physiological data being outside of a range, suggesting an action to keep physiological data of the person within the range;

receiving a change to at least one attribute of a historical event of the one or more historical events; and

displaying, via the graphic user interface, adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the change to the at least one attribute of the historical event.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the at least one attribute of the historical event comprises:

a quantity of an insulin dose or a meal;

an intensity of an exercise;

a duration of the meal or the exercise;

a content of the meal;

a timing of the historical event; or

any combination thereof.

13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the change to the at least one attribute of the historical event is received via:

a voice command;

an input through a touch screen or a touch pad;

an input through a mouse;

an input through a keyboard;

an input through a motion sensing system; or

any combination thereof.

14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a new event to add to the historical time period, the new event selected from a menu of events.

15 . The system of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the new event.

16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein displaying the adjusted historical physiological data comprises:

dynamically displaying the adjusted historical physiological data indicating the estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the change as the change is being made.

17 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a request to adjust the historical time period; and

displaying historical physiological data of the person during the adjusted historical time period, and one or more historical events occurred during the adjusted historical time period.

18 . The system of claim 11 , wherein displaying the historical physiological data and the one or more historical events occurred during the historical time period comprises:

overlaying the one or more historical events over the historical physiological data; or

plotting the one or more historical events apart from the historical physiological data.

19 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the action.

20 . A system comprising:

one or more memory devices; and

one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memory devices, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations comprising:

displaying, via a graphic user interface, historical physiological data of a person obtained during a historical time period, and one or more historical events that occurred during the historical time period;

responsive to a value of the historical physiological data being outside of a range, suggesting an action to keep physiological data of the person within the range; and

displaying, via the graphic user interface, adjusted historical physiological data indicating an estimated change to the historical physiological data that is resulted from the action.
