Abstract

The disclosure relates to a method and a system for determining a carbohydrate intake event from glucose monitoring data indicative of a glucose level in a system having a data processing device provided with one or more processors. The method comprises steps of: receiving a glucose monitoring value by the data processing device, the glucose monitoring value indicating a glucose level sampled from a person in a bodily fluid in a glucose level measurement; receiving, by the data processing device, insulin bolus administration data indicating an insulin bolus of an insulin bolus administration; determining, by the data processing device, from an analysis of the glucose monitoring value, a carbohydrate intake event if one of the following is detected: the glucose monitoring value indicates a glucose level below a first threshold glucose level; and the glucose monitoring value indicates an elevated glucose level above a second threshold glucose level, and the insulin bolus indicated by the insulin bolus administration data is exceeding a corrective insulin bolus suitable for compensating for the elevated glucose level; and generating, by the data processing device, carbohydrate intake …
