Managing Glucometer Supply Information

If a client is enrolled in our ASR program, Tenovi will automatically track the estimated number of strips remaining (based on supplies shipped and average measurement velocity) for every glucometer used by a client. Clients can use this information to track and order new supplies themselves, or, if desired, Tenovi can automaically place new supply orders for the patient (test strips, lancets, etc.) when certain thresholds are met to ensure the patient doesn’t run out of supplies.

GET Current Supply Information

You can retrieve current supply information by doing a GET request to this API endpoint (be sure to include the hardware_uuid / gateway ID / IMEI the glucometer is associated with).

/asr/glucometer_supplies/{hardware_uuid}/

This will return an object containing the following fields:

{
  "strips_sent": 100,
  "estimated_strips_remaining": 25,
  "average_measurements_per_day": 2
}
  • strips_sent - a measure of the number of glucometer strips Tenovi has shipped to the patient associated with the provided hardware_uuid (i.e. the Gateway ID or IMEI of the corresponding device).
  • estimated_strips_remaining - the different between the number of strips we have provided and the number of valid glucometer measurements taken, with an offset factor to account for lost strips, strips provided by the client, strips purchased by the patient, etc.
  • average_measurements_per_day - provides an estimate of how many strips are used per day, based on the patient’s most recent activity.

This API endpoint is covered in more detail in our API Reference.

Updating Current Supply Information

Using the same endpoint as above, you can make a PUT request to update the estimated_strips_remaining field associated with this glucometer. This field is important for how Tenovi calculates when to send a new order of supplies to the patient.

This API endpoint is covered in more detail in our ASR API Reference.
