Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of self-care of a disease using electronic data analysis devices and methods.
  • Chronic diseases and other physiological conditions such as diabetes, asthma, hormone therapy, anti-coagulation treatment, or the like, that require effective therapeutic care over long (or even life-long) periods of time have become a widespread phenomenon. Further characteristics of chronic diseases are often that no permanent cure exists and that the involved clinical picture typically is very complex. Typically, such diseases require medication and/or a control of the patient's lifestyle. Other examples of major chronic diseases are rheumatic diseases, and atherosclerotic heart disease. Diabetes is a classic model disease for chronic diseases and as such the description/examples included is representable for many chonic diseases and as such the invention can readily be transferred from diabetes to many of the chronic diseases.
  • Diabetes is one such chronic condition of the human body in which lack of insulin raises the blood sugar levels which in turn has harmful effects that sometimes may even endanger the patient's life.
  • a diabetic has to be very careful about the level of blood sugar in his/her body and therefore has to constantly monitor the activities that are likely to have an impact on the same.
  • To keep the blood sugar level in check a person with diabetes diabetic has to sometimes take insulin.
  • insulin injections These injections have to be administered after considering the patient's present condition as well as carefully predicting the near future state.
  • various blood sugar measurement devices such as strips and meters are available in the market.
  • the measurement devices have also been combined with insulin administration devices. This way the patient can carry one device that would not only measure his/her disease related parameters but would also assist him/her in administering his/her medicine.
  • Such devices are great tools for helping a patient to ensure that he or she is in compliance with a medical regimen.
  • the data gathering capabilities of such devices are also a helpful tool for doctors when they are assessing the regimen of a given patient.
  • the Modal view also often referred to as Modal day view, basal view, etc.
  • the Modal view comprises diary data for several days displayed versus the time thus superimposing many days of data into a single picture or image.
  • This allows a user or a doctor to spot patterns in the data where such patterns are representative of habits of a patient/user (forth only denoted user).
  • Such patterns could e.g. be that just after 9 o'clock in the morning the blood glucose level (referred to as BGL in the following) usually is too high or the like.
  • BGL blood glucose level
  • the Modal view can be used to display several types of diary data or parameters of a user like blood glucose measurements and/or administered amount of insulin or medication and/or meal intake and/or alcohol intake and/or physical exercise, etc.
  • US Patent application 2002/0193679 A1 discloses a method and system using a Modal view, which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
  • the Modal view comprises data entries for several days typically over a couple of weeks or even months some entries for certain days may obscure or hide patterns for other days.
  • a Modal view comprising enough data points to enable determination of a pattern may be somewhat overloaded with information. If fewer data entries are included in the Modal view then the problem of not being able to determine any patterns may arise due to the fact that too few entries may be present to ensure that the patterns are detectable.
  • a further object is to provide this in an easy and efficient way.
  • a device for assisting in determination of a pattern in a data set related to at least one physiological condition (and e.g. associated co-morbidities) of a user, the device comprising: - a memory comprising a set of data elements, each data element of said set representing a user action and a date and time when said user action was performed, and
  • processor for graphically displaying a representation of at least a part of said set of data elements on a display, where said part comprises data elements being within a predetermined range of dates, wherein the processor is further adapted to
  • Such patterns may e.g. arise from behaviour that arises from sub-optimal patient self-management. These patterns are difficult or almost impossible to identify in paper or electronic logbooks or using typical graphical presentations of data related to a physiological condition.
  • Patterns or habits may comprise the typical time of day of certain actions, such as typical meal times, typical times at which the patient measures a physiological parameter such as the blood glucose level, typical times and doses of medication, etc.
  • the user action may be any action that has influence on the physiological condition(s) to be controlled. Examples of such actions include meal intakes, medication, such as insulin delivery, measurements of a physiological parameter such as blood glucose level, physical activity, or the like.
  • Identifying such habits facilitates the user to follow his/her individual habits in a consistent way, thereby allowing a combination of a tight control of the user's lifestyle while providing a high degree of individual freedom and an increased quality of life.
  • user related data such as blood glucose, insulin intake etc.
  • the self-management of the patient can be customized to the individual patient's lifestyle while still providing control over the patient's day-to-day activities so that his diabetes can be efficiently managed.
  • the observance of the patient's habits and the data recording may be performed by the user himself/herself, thereby increasing the user's independence from health care personnel and, thus, increasing the user's quality of life. Furthermore, the monitoring and data recording by the user increases the possibility of constant observance, thereby improving the quality of the recorded data.
  • the user may be the patient, a health care professional or the like.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur des dispositifs (et les procédés et programmes associés) aidant à déterminer les motifs de points relatifs à un ensemble de données relatives à au moins un état physiologique d'un utilisateur. Les dispositifs comportent: une mémoire comprenant un ensemble d'éléments de données représentant chacun une action de l'utilisateur et la date et l'heure de cette action; et un processeur d'affichage graphique effectuant une représentation d'au moins une partie de l'ensemble d'éléments de données à l'intérieur d'une plage de dates prédéterminée. Ledit processeur peut en outre animer graphiquement ladite représentation en effectuant des modifications dynamique de la plage de dates prédéterminée. On peut ainsi déterminer plus aisément l'évolution dans le temps des motifs relatifs à l'ensemble de données, et leur évolution dans le temps.
