Claim Text:
1. A method for managing diabetes of a user with at least a glucose monitor and an infusion pump which are coupled to a controller, the method comprising the steps of: conducting a plurality of glucose measurements over time with the at least one glucose monitor; collating, using the controller, the plurality of glucose measurements into clusters for a predetermined time period; in the event that the clusters indicate gaps in the glucose measurements during the predetermined time period, annunciating, using the controller, such gaps to the user; in the event that the clusters indicate that the clusters are converging towards a certain range of glucose values, annunciating, using the controller, that the clusters are trending towards such range; or in the event that the clusters indicate three different ranges of glucose values for the predetermined time period including a high range, a mid-range, and a low range, comparing, using the controller, an upper boundary of the mid-range to an upper boundary of a predetermined ideal range, comparing, using the controller, a lower boundary of the mid-range to a lower boundary of the predetermined ideal range, and annunciating, using the controller, to the user whether the mid-range is outside the predetermined ideal range of a glucose range that is intermediate in value between 180 mg/dL and the boundary.
