The invention relates generally to the extraction and/or presentation of
glucose concentrations estimated as a function of time into a format that
facilitates conveyance of the underlying information. More particularly,
glucose concentration histories are presented in terms of risk of
behavior, in a video format, and/or in an audio format. The reduction of
data into video format, selected by time period, cluster, or glucose
concentration response, into an animated or video presentation allows
diagnosis and treatment information to be more readily determined and
used. Alternatively, glucose concentrations are output through a voice
synthesizer or an earcon. These information presentations are useful for
both the medical professional and the end user. The information
presentation is preferably used with a noninvasive, implantable,
semi-continuous, and/or continuous analyte analyzer, such as a glucose
concentration analyzer.
