RECOMMENDATIONS BASED ON CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING

Abstract:

Recommendations based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) are described. Given the number of people that wear CGM systems and because CGM systems produce measurements continuously, a platform that provides a CGM system may have an enormous amount of data. This amount of data is practically, if not actually, impossible for humans to process. In implementations, a CGM platform includes a data analytics platform that obtains glucose measurements provided by a CGM system and also obtains additional data associated with a user. The data analytics platform processes these measurements and the additional data to predict a health indicator by using models. This prediction serves as a basis for generating a recommendation, such as a message recommending the user take action or adopt a behavior to mitigate a predicted negative health condition.
