Personalized Wireless-Based Interactive Diabetes Treatment

A method of diabetes management through a portable device carried with the patient and linked through a wireless connection to a server, wherein the patient is queried to provide blood glucose levels and other health information and the patient is periodically advised of needed actions as well as provided reminders, related advice and education, comprising:

• providing the patient with a portable device with a wireless link to the server, and wherein the server is capable of sending queries for information and advice and information to the patient and is capable of receiving information from the patient and analyzing the received information to provide advice, queries and information, and wherein the portable device also incorporates a glucometer which can send the patient's blood glucose level results to the server on the wireless link;
• sending the patient, periodically, queries to check blood glucose level, and repeating the queries until the glucometer sends blood glucose level results to the server, which follows from the patient providing a blood sample for blood glucose level testing to the glucometer;
• querying for information from the patient including time from last food intake and insulin or drug administration, and glucose-response related feelings;
• advising the patient, from the server, to determine ketone levels if the patient's blood glucose is above a threshold or other patient information indicates it is prudent to do so, and where the ketone level results are transmitted by the portable device to the central server;
• advising the patient, from the server, to cease exertion or begin exercising based on patient preferences and limitations, blood glucose level, time from last food intake and insulin or drug administration, and glucose-response related feelings;
• advising the patient, from the server, to eat, and what to eat, based on patient preferences and limitations, blood glucose level, time from last food intake and insulin or drug administration, and glucose-response related feelings;
• providing education to the patient, from the server, regarding medications, diet, exercise, blood glucose and ketone levels, and risks involved with each, based on patient preferences and limitations, blood glucose level, time from last food intake and insulin or drug administration, and glucose-response related feelings.
