Systems and methods are disclosed that employ several or numerous factors in the determination of a glycemic urgency index (GUI), which may be based on a measured blood glucose level as well as other factors. The other factors may include time derivatives of the glucose level and/or other factors, e.g., user-entered data, data measured by other sensors or received from a network source, or historical data. The GUI is then presented to the user in an interesting way, e.g., via a background color or other inconspicuous notifier, e.g., on a mobile device such as a smart phone. The GUI may also be employed in the triggering of actionable alerts and alarms on an electronic device for the user. The GUI, or another index calculated from combinations of the variables and parameters described, may further be employed to drive a medicament delivery device such as a pump.
