SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR ANALYSIS OF INSULIN REGIMEN ADHERENCE DATA

Abstract:

System and methods are disclosed for monitoring adherence to a prescribed insulin regimen for a subject. A data set comprising a plurality of metabolic events the subject engaged is obtained. Each metabolic event comprises a timestamp of the event and a first classification that is one of insulin regimen adherent and nonadherent. Each respective metabolic event is then further classified using a second classification, based upon the timestamp of the metabolic event. The second classification has a temporal periodicity represented by a plurality of periodic elements. Metabolic events are binned on the basis of the second classification thereby obtaining a plurality of subsets of the metabolic events, each subset for a different periodic element. For each respective subset, a respective representation of adherence to the insulin regimen is communicated, the representation of adherence being collectively based upon the first classification of metabolic events in the respective subset.
