Abstract:
1. A method for controlling a measurement process of blood glucose of a patient, comprising: selecting a repeatedly occurring event, a glucose meter obtaining a first measurement value of blood glucose, the first measurement value being associated with a first occurrence of the event, the glucose meter obtaining a second measurement value of blood glucose, the second measurement value being obtained after the first measurement value, the first and second measurement values forming a first pair of measurements associated with the first occurrence of the event, the glucose meter obtaining a second pair of measurement values associated with a second occurrence of the event, the second pair of measurement values occurring after the first pair of measurement values, the glucose meter sending the first and second pair of measurement values to a software program, the software program obtaining a first single difference value by determining a first difference between the first pair of measurement values, the software program obtaining a second single difference value by determining a second difference between the second pair of measurement values, the software program calculating trend data by comparing the first single difference value with the second single difference value, and software program controlling the measurement process using the trend data by sending a report message to a communication device of the patient.
