摘要:
The invention relates to an analysis system for the photometric determination of an analyte in a body fluid, having an analysis device and a test carrier. The test carrier has an evaluation zone in which a photometrically detectable change takes place as the result of a reaction of a sample of the body fluid which contacts the test carrier with a reagent contained in the test carrier. The analysis device comprises an optical emitter for emitting light onto the evaluation zone, an optical receiver for receiving light from the evaluation zone and for generating a measurement signal corresponding to the received light, and a measurement and evaluation device with a measuring unit and an evaluating unit. The measurement signal is amplified and digitalized in the measuring unit. In the evaluating unit, the concentration value is determined from the digitalized measurement signal. In the evaluating unit, a control value of a control parameter is detected at one detection point during the processing after the calculation step. An error in the measurement and evaluation device is recognized if the deviation of the control value from the expected value exceeds a predefined threshold value.

A guided structured testing kit which may include a test strip container, a test strip meter, a testing protocol advisor, and at least one of diagnostic test strip is presented. The diagnostic test strip includes a support element, a glucose reagent provided on the support element, and a glycemic context code provided on the support element. The glycemic context code can be machine-readable. The glycemic context code signals a glycemic context to a test strip meter, either upon insertion of the diagnostic test strip or by a user manually inputting the glycemic context into the test strip meter. A method for performing a guided structured test is also provided.

摘要:
A diabetes management system is provided that employs a communication protocol with enhanced security. The diabetes management system includes: a medical device operable to perform a diabetes care function in relation to a patient and store data related to the operation thereof; and a diabetes care manager in data communication with the medical device using a communication protocol defined in accordance with IEEE standard 11073. The diabetes care manager is able to request access to a given security role supported by the medical device, where the given security role is associated with a set of commands that are defined as a private extension of the communication protocol.
摘要:
There is provided a test method for analysing a body fluid in which a test tape is used in a test device in order to successively provide analytical test fields stored on the test tape, wherein body fluid is applied by a user to the test field provided at a time and the said test field is photometrically scanned using a measuring unit of the device to record measurement signals. In order to increase the measurement reliability, it is proposed that a control value is determined from a time-dependent and/or wavelength-dependent change in the measurement signals and that the measurement signals are processed as valid or discarded as erroneous depending on the control value.
摘要:
A computer-implemented diabetes management system is provided that supports enhanced security between a diabetes care manager in data communication with a medical device. The diabetes care manager includes: a first application that operates to request access to a first security role supported by the medical device, where the first security role is associated with a first set of commands for accessing data on the medical device that are defined as a private extension of the communication protocol; and a second application that operates to request access to a second security role supported by the medical device, where the second security role is associated with a second set of commands for accessing data on the medical device that are defined as a private extension of the communication protocol. The second set of commands has one or more commands that are mutually exclusive from the first set of commands.
