A method for interactive definition and management of a treatment for monitoring blood glucose of a diabetic patient includes performing two distinct, asynchronous and simultaneous, work cycles, having different length: a first local cycle, shorter, includes the steps of acquiring at least one value of said patient's blood glucose by means of a glucometer integrated in a monitoring device, calculating an insulin dosage value to be administered to the patient, by means of a computing algorithm, provided by a specialist doctor, displaying the insulin dosage on a monitoring device display, and defining a date and time for subsequent acquisition of blood glucose level. Furthermore, the system automatically sends glycemic information to the doctor, if they are beyond mean value parameters, time passed from a last contact and number of hypoglycemic value measurements, that the specialist himself can set for each patient and modify over time. A second remote cycle, longer, includes reading the patient's last blood glucose value, periodical running of a procedure for extracting a group of data significant for the patient, related to at least the trend of glycemic level values of the patient and to corresponding insulin doses, recommended on the basis of computation of said algorithm in a predetermined previous period; transmission of the group of significant date to the specialist' doctor's remote computer, by means of a simplified transmitter/receiver module operating via a mobile telephone network, integrated with monitoring device, possibly receiving a set of modified parameters for performing the computing algorithm, or a new computing algorithm, and introduction of such set of modified parameters or of the new algorithm in the managing program. |
