    摘要: Methods for calculating an analyte concentration of a sample are provided. In one exemplary embodiment the method includes steps that are directed toward accounting for inaccuracies that occur as a result of temperature variations in a sample, a meter, or the surrounding environment. In another exemplary embodiment the method includes steps that are directed toward determining whether an adequate sample is provided in a meter because insufficient samples can result in inaccuracies. The methods that are provided can be incorporated into a variety of mechanisms, but they are primarily directed toward glucose meters for blood samples and toward meters for controls solutions.

    摘要: A hand-held test meter for use with an analytical test strip in the determination of an analyte (such as glucose) in a bodily fluid sample (for example, a whole blood sample) includes a housing, a test meter control circuit block, and an electromagnetic interference detection circuit block with an antenna configured to sense electromagnetic fields of a predetermined frequency. The electromagnetic interference detection circuit block is configured to generate a signal representative of an electromagnetic field sensed by the antenna and to provide that signal to the test meter control circuit block. In addition, the test meter control circuit block is configured to interrupt operation of the hand-held test meter when the signal received from the electromagnetic interference detection circuit block is represents an electromagnetic field that interferes with the hand-held test meter's operation.

    摘要: Methods for distinguishing between an aqueous non-blood sample (e.g., a control solution) and a blood sample. In one aspect, the methods include using a test strip in which multiple current transients are measured by a meter electrically connected to an electrochemical test strip. The current transients are used to determine if a sample is a blood sample or an aqueous non-blood sample based on at least two characteristics (e.g., amount of interferent present and reaction kinetics). The method can also include calculating a discrimination criteria based upon at least two characteristics. Various aspects of a system for distinguishing between blood samples and an aqueous non-blood sample are also provided herein.

    摘要: A method for determining an analyte in a bodily fluid sample includes inserting the analyte test strip into a test meter. The insertion is such that an electrical connector pin of the test meter travels along an electrical contact pad of the analyte test strip, and across a meter identification feature disposed on the electrical contact pad, during the insertion. Moreover, during the insertion, a signal processing module of the test meter measures an electrical characteristic via the electrical connector pin as the electrical connector pin travels along the electrical contact pad and across the meter identification feature. The method also includes identifying the analyte test strip, using the signal processing module, based on the electrical characteristic measured as the analyte test strip is inserted into the test meter and, thereafter, applying the bodily fluid sample to the analyte test strip upon notification by the test meter that the identification indicates that such applying is appropriate. The method then includes determining an analyte in the bodily fluid sample using the test meter only if the identification indicates that such determining is appropriate. The electrical contact pad of the analyte test strip employed in the method has a predetermined contact electrical characteristic value and the meter identification feature of the analyte test strip has a predetermined identification feature electrical characteristic value that is dissimilar from the predetermined contact electrical characteristic, thus providing for identification of the analyte test strip by the test meter.
