The patent US12047381B2 describes a system that integrates a display device with an analyte sensor application and a partner device, specifically an insulin pump, which operates through a communication interface. The system allows the display device to collect and display information from the insulin pump, including historical insulin dosage data and real-time analyte data. The analyte sensor application is designed to monitor the functionality of the analyte sensor system and provide alerts related to both the sensor and the insulin pump. Additionally, the display device can store and allow user interaction with both analyte-related and medicament-related data through a graphical user interface.

The system further enhances user experience by utilizing a continuous connection model for communication between the display device and the analyte sensor system. This model ensures that the display device remains connected by periodically exchanging messages, which includes receiving alerts about potential issues with the insulin pump. The system also supports remote monitoring by allowing the display device to transmit analyte and medicament delivery information to an electronic device used by a follower of the user, enabling them to receive alerts and monitor glucose and insulin data. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to managing diabetes care through integrated technology, facilitating better monitoring and management of insulin delivery based on real-time glucose data.
