Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of blood glucose meters, and in particular relates to a test paper returning device for a blood glucose meter. Background Art
[0002] Diabetes is an incurable chronic disease. Long-term existence can lead to chronic damage and dysfunction of various tissues. Severe patients are more likely to have long-term complications, such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, chronic kidney disease, diabetes and retinopathy, which bring pain to the lives of diabetic patients. At present, there are more than 100 million diabetic patients in my country, who need to undergo regular blood sugar testing.
[0003] Blood glucose meter, also known as glucometer, is an electronic instrument that measures blood glucose level. Blood glucose meter is divided into photoelectric type and electrode type based on working principle. The test principle of electrode type blood glucose meter is more scientific, and the electrode can be hidden inside. Blood glucose meter has two kinds of working principles, one is photoelectric type and the other is electrode type. Photoelectric blood glucose meter is similar to CD player, with a photoelectric head. Its advantage is that it is relatively cheap, and its disadvantage is that the detection head is exposed to the air, which is easily contaminated, affecting the test results. The error range is about plus or minus 0.8, and the service life is relatively short. Generally, it is more accurate within two years. After two years, it is recommended that patients who are using photoelectric type machine go to the maintenance station for calibration. Generally, hospital representatives will perform regular maintenance, while home blood glucose meter needs to go to the after-sales service department for head maintenance. The test principle of electrode type is more scientific, and the electrode port is hidden inside to avoid contamination. The error range is generally about plus or minus 0.5. It has high accuracy, does not require calibration under normal use, and has a long service life. There are two types of blood collection methods for blood glucose meter, one is blood smearing type and the other is blood sucking type. Blood smearing machine generally collects a large amount of blood, which is painful for patients. If too much blood is collected, the test results will be affected. If the blood volume is insufficient, the operation will fail and the test strip will be wasted. Most of these blood glucose meters are photoelectric. In blood-sucking blood glucose meters, the test strip controls the blood sample measurement by itself, and the result will not be biased due to the blood volume problem. It is easy to operate and only requires a drop of blood to be touched with the test strip.
[0004] After the test is completed, the existing blood glucose meter usually needs to manually pull out the test strip with blood, which causes the user's hand to directly contact the test strip. If the user's hand has scratches or wounds, it is easy to get wound infection after contact with the test strip. If the user uses other tools such as clips or tweezers to pull out the test strip, the use of the blood glucose meter will be cumbersome, thereby increasing the burden on the user.
[0005] Therefore, a blood glucose meter test strip removal device is needed to solve the problems in the prior art of manually removing the test strip, which easily causes the blood on the test strip to come into contact with the wound on the user's hand, thereby causing wound infection, and using auxiliary tools to pull out the test strip, which is cumbersome and increases the burden on the user.
