Apparatus, systems, and methods for determining and displaying pre-event and post-event analyte concentration levels

A hand-held analyte meter for identifying and displaying event readings, the hand-held analyte meter comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor;
• software stored in the memory and executable by the processor;
• and
• a display coupled to the processor and operable to present a graphical user interface (GUI), wherein the processor executing the software is operable to:
• measure a first analyte concentration reading from a first sensor coupled to the hand-held analyte meter and a second analyte concentration reading from a second sensor coupled to the hand-held analyte meter, both readings associated with a first event;
• calculate a numerical delta between the first analyte concentration reading and the second analyte concentration reading for the first event;
• and
• display on the display via the GUI a time graph including a representation of the first event occurring and the numerical delta associated with the first event, wherein the numerical delta is displayed proximate to the representation of the occurrence of the first event to facilitate immediate visual evaluation of a relative magnitude of the numerical delta and an association with the first event, both indicating a significance of the first event.
