Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 One embodiment of a system for testing a blood glucose measurement engine is generally depicted. The system can include a host device emulator communicatively coupled to the diagnostic computer. The host device emulator may generally include a power supply circuit, a measurement engine port, at least one indicator, and a communication port arranged and interconnected on a printed circuit board. Various embodiments of a host device emulator and systems and methods for testing a blood glucose measurement engine using the host device emulator will be described in greater detail herein.

[0024] The phrase "glucose measurement engine" as used herein refers to a device operable to analyze a sample of biological material, such as blood, to assess the level of glucose contained in the biological material. In the embodiments described herein, the blood glucose measurement engine is a modular device that can be incorporated or otherwise coupled into a separate host de...

Abstract

A system for testing a blood glucose measurement engine includes a host device emulator having a measurement engine port communicatively coupled to a communications port and electrically coupled to a power supply. A diagnostic computer may be communicatively coupled to the communications port of the host device emulator. The diagnostic computer may include a processor and a memory having computer readable and executable instructions. When the blood glucose measurement engine is communicatively coupled to the measurement engine port, the host device emulator simulates connection to a host device by facilitating the communication of signals between the diagnostic computer and the blood glucose measurement engine. The processor executes the computer readable and executable instructions to: transmit control signals and diagnostic signals to the measurement engine, receive and analyze data signals transmitted from the measurement engine, and monitor a glucose measurement process performed by the measurement engine.

Description

technical field [0001] This specification relates generally to measurement engines for determining blood glucose levels, and more particularly to systems and devices for use in testing blood glucose measurement engines. Background technique [0002] Portable, hand-held medical diagnostic devices are often used to measure the concentration of biologically significant components in body fluids, for example, the concentration of glucose in blood. The portable handheld medical diagnostic device and its accessories can work together to measure the amount of glucose in the blood and can be used by a person with diabetes or a medical professional to monitor blood glucose at home, in a healthcare facility, or at other locations. [0003] For people with diabetes, regular testing of blood sugar levels can be an important part of diabetes management. Accordingly, it is desirable to provide portable and easy-to-use medical diagnostic equipment, such as blood glucose measuring equipmen...
