Assessing Measures of Glycemic Variability

Abstract

Methods, devices and systems for receiving an instruction to determine a glycemic variation level, retrieving a stored metric for determining the glycemic variation level, retrieving one or more parameters associated with the retrieved metric analysis, determining the glycemic variation level based on the retrieved one or more parameters for the retrieved metric analysis, and outputting the determined glycemic variation level when it is determined that the retrieved one or more parameters associated with the retrieved metric analysis meets a predetermined condition are disclosed.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method, comprising:
 receiving an instruction to determine a glycemic variation level associated with a glycemic variation metric;   retrieving one or more parameters associated with the glycemic variation metric;   retrieving stored glycemic data based on the one or more retrieved parameters;   determining if the retrieved glycemic data meets one or more predetermined conditions based on the one or more parameters associated with the glycemic variation metric;   determining the glycemic variation level associated with the glycemic variation metric based on the retrieved one or more parameters and the retrieved glycemic data, when it is determined that the one or more predetermined conditions are met;   outputting the determined glycemic variation level; and   outputting a notification when it is determined that the one or more predetermined conditions are not met.
