Method and system for insulin infusion rate management

A method of administering insulin includes receiving blood glucose measurements of a patient at a data processing device from a glucometer. Each blood glucose measurement is separated by a time interval and includes a blood glucose time associated with a time of measuring the blood glucose measureme...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method of administering insulin includes receiving blood glucose measurements of a patient at a data processing device from a glucometer. Each blood glucose measurement is separated by a time interval and includes a blood glucose time associated with a time of measuring the blood glucose measurement. The method also includes receiving patient information at the data processing device and selecting a subcutaneous insulin treatment for tube-fed patients from a collection of subcutaneous insulin treatments. The selection is based on the blood glucose measurements and the patient information. The subcutaneous insulin treatment program for tube-fed patients determines recommended insulin doses based on the blood glucose times. The method also includes executing, using the data processing device, the selected subcutaneous insulin treatment.
