| 20100243441 | BIOSENSOR WITH PREDETERMINED DOSE RESPONSE CURVE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING - The present invention provides a system of biosensors whose dose-response curves are maintained within a predetermined and desired range or tolerance during production by selecting a feature of the biosensors that can be varied during production. For example, in one exemplary embodiment the effective area of the working electrode of an electrochemical biosensor can be varied during production as needed to offset variations that occur, e.g., in the reagent of the biosensors as production proceeds. In another exemplary embodiment, the dose-response curve of biosensors not yet produced can be predicted and one or more features of these biosensors can be selected to maintain the dose-response curve within a predetermined range or tolerance. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100331651 | BLOOD GLUCOSE MANAGEMENT AND INTERFACE SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A blood glucose management device is operable to seamlessly provide a sequence of at least two displays of data relating to one or more blood glucose measurements to a user, upon minimal user interaction, with the blood glucose management device. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100331652 | MODULAR DIABETES MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS - In one embodiment, a modular diabetes management system includes a portable, stand-alone blood glucose meter and a portable docking device that includes an internal receptacle sized and structured to receive and house the blood glucose meter. The docking device is generally operable to interface with the blood glucose meter and perform various diabetes management functions. For example, the docking device may be operable to analyze blood glucose measurement data stored on the blood glucose meter, configure the blood glucose meter, and/or interact with an insulin delivery device, just to name a few possibilities. Other embodiments include unique methods, systems, kits, assemblies, equipment, and/or apparatus which are related to the management of diabetes. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20080314882 | METHOD OF MAKING A BIOSENSOR - The present invention relates to a method of forming a biosensor. The method includes providing a substrate coated with a electrically conductive material, ablating the electrically conductive material to form electrodes and a code pattern, wherein there is sufficient contrast between the conductive coating and the substrate such that the code pattern is discernible, and applying a reagent to at least one of the electrodes. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090045076 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ANALYTE MEASUREMENT USING DOSE SUFFICIENCY ELECTRODES - A method of measuring an analyte in a biological fluid comprises applying an excitation signal having a DC component and an AC component. The AC and DC responses are measured; a corrected DC response is determined using the AC response; and a concentration of the analyte is determined based upon the corrected DC response. Other methods and devices are disclosed. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090251158 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE OF A BIOSENSOR TEST STRIP - The present invention provides a test strip for measuring a signal of interest in a biological fluid when the test strip is mated to an appropriate test meter, wherein the test strip and the test meter include structures to verify the integrity of the test strip traces, to measure the parasitic resistance of the test strip traces, and to provide compensation in the voltage applied to the test strip to account for parasitic resistive losses in the test strip traces. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100111764 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CODING INFORMATION ON A BIOSENSOR TEST STRIP - The present invention provides a test strip for measuring a concentration of an analyte of interest in a biological fluid, wherein the test strip may be encoded with information that can be read by a test meter into which the test strip is inserted. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100147706 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CODING INFORMATION ON A BIOSENSOR TEST STRIP - The present invention provides a test strip for measuring a concentration of an analyte of interest in a biological fluid, wherein the test strip may be encoded with information that can be read by a test meter into which the test strip is inserted. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100198107 | INTEGRATED BLOOD GLUCOSE METER AND LANCING DEVICE - An integrated medical testing device includes a testing meter and lancing device, the meter having a housing, a display, a test element opening, a firing mechanism and a navigation mechanism integrated with a lancing device. The lancing device is at least partially located in the housing and includes a tip having an opening through which a lancet extends upon firing. Various mechanisms can be used to extend the tip from the housing and to prime and fire the lancing device. The lancing device can accommodate a single lancet or a cartridge having multiple lancets. If a cartridge is used, various mechanisms can be utilized to position an unused lancet for firing after a test has been conducted. The relative locations of the lancing device and test element opening are such that the integrated meter and lancing device can be used with a test element inserted in the test element opening. The integrated meter and lancing device can include status indicators that reflect the state of the lancing device. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100219071 | BIOSENSOR - The present invention relates to a biosensor. The biosensor includes a support substrate, an electrically conductive coating positioned on the support substrate, the coating being formed to define electrodes and a code pattern, wherein there is sufficient contrast between the conductive coating and the substrate such that the code pattern is discernible, and a cover cooperating with the support substrate to define a channel. At least a portion of the electrodes are positioned in the channel. | 09-02-2010 |
