OneTouch Reveal® Web Application – Resources Glossary

Resources:

• This section contains additional information that may be helpful.

• NOTE: When the term glucose is used throughout the manual, this is referring to blood glucose or Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) data.

Glossary:

• This Glossary defines the terms used in the OneTouch Reveal^® web application and its User Manual as well as some common health terms associated with diabetes.
  • Adherence Analysis Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides an overview of adherence data to blood glucose testing and pump activities for a selected date range.
  • Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) Report
    • An industry-standardized, single-page report for retrospective glucose data interpretation created by the International Diabetes Center.
  • Average Glucose
    • The arithmetic mean calculated for a set of blood glucose readings.
  • Basal Dose
    • The continuous amount of insulin the body needs throughout the day.
  • Blood Glucose Monitoring (BGM)
    • A glucose monitoring system that measures glucose from a drop of blood obtained from a fingerstick by using a handheld device (meter).
  • Blood Sugar or Blood Glucose (BG)
    • Refers to sugar (glucose) results taken from a blood sample. "Blood Sugar", "Blood Glucose" or its abbreviation (BG) are used in reports to identify these results.
  • Bolus Dose
    • The additional units of insulin needed to cover carbohydrate intake or to correct a high blood glucose level. 
  • Cannula
    • A short, thin, flexible tube inserted through the skin and connected to an insulin pump used to administer insulin under the skin. 
  • Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)
    • A glucose monitoring system that measures glucose in the interstitial fluid under the skin on a nearly continuous basis by using a sensor that is inserted through the skin.
  • Coefficient of Variation
    • The coefficient of variation (CV) is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation (SD) to the mean (average), expressed as a percentage: %CV=100 X SD/Mean.
  • Data List Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides a tabular view of all data captured by the device for a selected date range, displayed in chronological order.
  • Data Record
    • A unit of information in the OneTouch Reveal^® web application, such as a blood glucose reading, insulin dose or other information (e.g., name).
  • Date Range
    • The number of days of data (14-, 30-, 90- days or a custom range) contained in each OneTouch Reveal^® report, unless otherwise noted.
  • Default Report
    • The OneTouch Reveal^® report shown first whenever you open the Reports tab. 
  • Defaults
    • Refers to target glucose ranges or report options that are pre-set in the OneTouch Reveal^® web application.
  • Details by Day of Week Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides a summary of blood glucose readings, insulin and carbohydrate intake by day of week for a selected date range. 
  • Details by Time of Day Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides a summary of blood glucose readings, insulin and carbohydrate intake by time of day for a selected date range.
  • Device
    • A product that is a source of diabetes data that can be shared with the OneTouch Reveal^® web application.
  • Device Serial Number:
    • A unique number that is stored in the memory of each glucose monitoring device. The OneTouch Reveal^® web application retrieves the device serial number when transferring glucose data so that it can keep track of the device from which the data originated.
  • Excursion Analysis Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides a listing of hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, variability and pump patterns for a selected date range.
  • Footnotes
    • Messages that appear on the bottom of OneTouch Reveal^® reports that communicate additional information.
  • HIGH Blood Glucose Readings
    • When "HIGH" (or "HI") appears in a report in all capital letters it refers to blood glucose readings above the reportable range of the glucose monitoring device.
  • Hyperglycemia
    • A state when a patient has a very high glucose level. The clinical definition of hyperglycemia is a glucose level above 180 mg/dL.
  • Hypoglycemia
    • A state when a patient has a very low glucose level. The clinical definition of hypoglycemia is a glucose level below 70 mg/dL. 
  • Integrated Daily View Report
    • A time of day view of glucose readings, carbohydrate intake, and insulin dose data.
  • Inter-Quartile Range (IQR)
    • The distance between the 25th percentile and the 75th percentile. The IQR is essentially the range of the middle 50% of the data. Because it uses the middle 50%, the IQR is not affected by outliers or extreme values. The greater the distance between the 25th and 75th percentiles, the higher the variability in the data. 
  • Logbook Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that lists blood glucose readings, pump, carbohydrate intake, and insulin data in columns by time of day for a selected date range.
  • LOW Blood Glucose Readings
    • When "LOW" (or "LO") appears in a report in all capital letters, it refers to blood glucose readings below the reportable range of the glucose monitoring device.
  • Median
    • The middle value in a data set (taken as the average of the two middle values when the sequence has an even number of values).
  • Patient Summary Report
    • A OneTouch Reveal^® report that provides an overview of glucose patterns and excursions, testing and dosing regimens, and key comparative statistics for a selected date range.
  • Pattern Messages
    • Messages that appear in OneTouch Reveal^® reports that may help your healthcare professional identify trends in patient data.
  • PDF
    • A document format (portable document format) that can be opened and viewed using Adobe^® Acrobat^® Reader^®.
  • Poll Interval
    • The time between the polling sessions. A polling session is when the software looks for connected devices on the computer.
  • Progress Report and Logbook
    • This is a version of the OneTouch Reveal^® report you see on your mobile app showing a progress overview including averages by month and a logbook. 
  • Settings
    • Customize OneTouch Reveal^® reports to meet your needs.
  • Schedule
    • A 24-hour day divided into eight time periods that can be customized to meet an individual's personal daily routine.
  • Standard Deviation (SD)
    • A measure of dispersion, i.e., how much the readings in a certain set are scattered around the mean. A low standard deviation means that the readings are tightly clustered, and a high standard deviation means that they are widely scattered.
  • Tags
    • A note that is attached to a reading to further identify the data. The tag may indicate that the reading is a Before Meal, After Meal, Fasting or Bedtime reading.
  • Target Range
    • The range (within upper and lower Target Glucose Range Limits) of preferred blood glucose levels.
  • Time Period
    • The eight periods within a 24-hour period used to organize data transferred to the OneTouch Reveal^® web application.
  • Tooltip
    • Additional information that appears when moving the mouse cursor over a text field or icon. Not all text fields or icons have tooltip information.
  • Transfer
    • The procedure that moves data from a device to the OneTouch Reveal^® web application.
  • Unit of Measure
    • Refers to mg/dL. Blood glucose readings are reported in mg/dL.
