Methods and devices for retrospectively assessing continuous monitoring reference pattern data to determine a risk of a patient glucose level measurement taken in at least one data segment being outside a predetermined range. The methods and devices can include executing an algorithm to compare risk scores derived from reference pattern data in a currently collected data segment with risk scores of previously stored reference pattern data of previously collected data segments for a patient for assessing risk.
