Day Graph
This analysis is used to make it easier to recognise patterns
repeated daily. For this purpose, all the data is placed on
a 24-hour grid. As a result all the tests performed at
(approximately) the same time of day are shown at the same
position on the time axis. If these time blocks are defined in
the meter, the information will be evaluated when the time
axis is set out. If they are not, the time block settings in the
Accu-Chek Smart Pix configuration will be used. The analysis
can be displayed in two different styles of presentation.
The one which appears on your report is defined during
configuration.
Detailed:
All the blood glucose levels are plotted at the
relevant time of day according to the time when the test was
performed. Levels that have been determined within a period
of 10 hours are connected by a black line in chronological
order. A (thicker) blue curve represents the development of
the mean level (in intervals of one hour if a test result falls in
each interval). Time block boundaries are represented by
vertical grey lines.
This is also where you will find a display of insulin doses (if
stored in the meter). Each insulin dose is plotted on the chart
from the top downwards and you can read the relevant levels
off the upper area of the right-hand y-axis.
At the lower edge of the analysis, carbohydrate amounts are
shown (if stored in the meter). In the lower area of the right-
hand y-axis, you will find the scale for the carbohydrate
amounts.
