METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING LAG CORRECTION DURING IN VIVO MEASUREMENT OF ANALYTE CONCENTRATION WITH ANALYTE CONCENTRATION VARIABILITY AND RANGE DATA
Methods, devices, and systems are provided for correcting lag in measurements of analyte concentration level in interstitial fluid. The invention includes receiving a signal representative of sensor data from an analyte monitoring system related to an analyte level measured over time, computing rates of change of the sensor data for a time period of the sensor data, computing a rate distribution of the rates of change, transforming the rate distribution into a linear arrangement, determining a best-fit line for the transformed rate distribution, computing a slope of the best-fit line and using the slope of the best-fit line as a representation of a variability of the analyte level to adjust an amount of lag correction applied to the sensor data. Numerous additional features are disclosed.
