Displays for a medical device

摘要

Embodiments described herein relate to an analyte monitoring device having a user interface with a display and a plurality of actuators. The display is configured to render a plurality of display screens, including a home screen and an alert screen. The home screen is divided into a plurality of simultaneously displayed panels, with a first panel displays a rate of change of continuously monitored analyte levels in interstitial fluid, a second panel simultaneously displays a current analyte level and an analyte trend indicator, and a third panel displays status information of a plurality of components of the device. When an alarm condition is detected, the display renders the alert screen in place of the home screen, the alert screen displaying information corresponding to the detected alarm condition. Furthermore, the actuators are configured to affect further output of the analyte monitoring device corresponding to the detected condition.

1. A method for displaying glucose information to a user using a hand-held computing device, comprising:
displaying on a touch-sensitive display of a computing device a glucose chart including a trend line indicative of a glucose level of a host over a first time period; displaying one or more event indicators on the chart, each event indicator positioned on the chart to indicate when an associated event occurred in time; and changing the time period of the chart from the first time period to a second, different time period, wherein changing the time period causes the event indicators to move on the chart so that the event indicators continue to indicate when the associated event occurred in time.
