Abstract

Systems, methods and graphical user interfaces for visualizing analyte measurements using animation are presented. For instance, a system for continuously monitoring analyte concentration in a physiological fluid includes a sensor, a transmitter, at least one processor and a display. The display is for outputting a graphical user interface. The display is controlled by the at least one processor to display, using the graphical user interface, historical analyte concentration levels and a trend indication animation. The trend indication animation comprises at least one visual element configured by the at least one processor to have a periodic motion between a first position and a second position on the display in one of a plurality of trend directions. The trend direction of the periodic motion between the first and second positions indicates whether the analyte concentration is increasing or decreasing and the rate of change of the analyte concentration level. The at least one visual element is further configured with a period of the periodic motion between the first and second positions in order to indicate a severity of an excursion of the analyte concentration.
