Patent ID: 7670288

Claim:
A continuous blood glucose monitoring system comprising: a system configured to continuously receive data from blood glucose monitoring sensors; the system configured to convert sensor data into current blood glucose concentration values; the system configured to support continuously fluctuating blood glucose notification threshold profiles; the continuously fluctuating blood glucose notification threshold profiles comprising: an upper blood glucose concentration threshold function; a lower blood glucose concentration threshold function; the threshold functions comprising specific values at specific times; the threshold functions comprising functions of expected blood glucose concentration as a function of time; the threshold functions comprising the bounds of an expected blood glucose concentration range; the system configured to compare a current blood glucose concentration value with a corresponding upper blood glucose concentration threshold value; the system configured to compare a current blood glucose concentration value with a corresponding lower blood glucose concentration threshold value; the system configured to alert a user when a current blood glucose concentration value is greater than a corresponding upper blood glucose concentration threshold value; and the system configured to alert a user when a current blood glucose concentration value is less than a corresponding lower blood glucose concentration threshold value.
