A method and device are provided for self-monitoring a patient's blood
glucose condition to determine a long-term effect of the patient's
behavior on his blood glucose level. A sequence of measurements of the
blood glucose level is applied during a day, the sequential measurements
are repeated during a predetermined time period from several days to
several weeks, and measured data are collected. The measured data is
analyzed to determine a distribution of the average glucose values within
said predetermined time period, thereby providing a feedback for the
patient or an authorized person.
