1. A system for continuously monitoring analyte concentration levels in a physiological fluid, the system comprising:
a sensor;
a transmitter;
one or more processors; and
a unit for receiving data from the sensor comprising a display for outputting a graphical user interface, the display being controlled by the one or more processors to display, using the graphical user interface, historical analyte concentration levels and a trend indication animation, the trend indication animation comprising a first visual element configured by the one or more processors to have a periodic motion between a first position and a second position on the display in one of a plurality of trend directions, wherein 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, and in which the first 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 levels, wherein the first visual element comprises two trend-indicating bubbles disposed beneath a static center bubble on the graphical user interface wherein the two trend-indicating bubbles are configured by the one or more processors to move in unison relative to the static center bubble in said one of the plurality of trend directions between the first position and the second position in accordance with the periodic motion and in which a portion of one of the trend-indicating bubbles is caused to emerge from beneath the static center bubble in the second position and a portion of the other of the trend-indicating bubbles is caused to move further beneath the static center bubble, wherein the combined periodic movement of the pair of trend-indicating bubbles between the first and second position relative to the static center bubble provides a clear indication of a trend in one of the plurality of trend directions.
