Abstract

Automation of the start of the program in blood glucose determining apparatuses when a preset minimum amount of blood is reached leads to elimination of the sources of error which are possible with this and thus to an increase in the accuracy of measurement.

Description

Verfahren und Vorrichtung zum Ingangsetzen des Blutzucker-Bestimmungsprogramms in einem mit handelsüblichen Blutzucker-Teststreifen arbeitenden Blutzucker­ bestimmungsgerät.Method and device for starting the blood sugar determination program in a blood sugar working with commercially available blood sugar test strips determination device.

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Optimierung der Meßergebnisse von Blutzuckerbestimmungsgeräten, die mit handelsüblichen Blutzucker- Teststreifen arbeiten. Die heute auf dem Markt befindlichen Blutzucker­ bestimmungsgeräte zeichnen sich durch weitgehend identische Arbeits­ schrittabfolge aus, nämlich:The invention relates to a method for optimizing the measurement results blood glucose monitors that are available with commercially available blood glucose Test strips work. The blood sugar on the market today determination devices are characterized by largely identical work sequence of steps, namely:

  • . Gerät einschalten.. Turn on a device.
  • 2. Ein Tropfen Blut auf das Testfeld des Teststreifens aufsetzen.2. Place a drop of blood on the test field of the test strip.
  • 3. Per Knopfdruck das Programm starten.3. Start the program at the push of a button.
  • 4. Nach Ablauf der vom Hersteller jeweils vorgegebenen Zeit Testfeld abwischen oder abspülen.4. After the time specified by the manufacturer test field wipe or rinse.
  • 5. Teststreifen in die Meßkammer schieben. Üblicherweise wird hier der Teststreifen reflexionsphotometrisch gemessen.5. Push the test strip into the measuring chamber. Usually the test strip is reflection photometric here measured.
  • 6. Das Meßergebnis wird optisch und/oder akustisch angezeigt. Gerade für den dieses Gerät bedienenden Laien birgt dieser Bedienungsablauf erhebliche Fehlermöglichkeiten, die auszuschalten für bestimmte Patienten­ gruppen lebensnotwendig sein kann.6. The measurement result is displayed optically and / or acoustically. This operating procedure is especially for the layperson operating this device significant error opportunities that turn off for certain patients groups can be vital.

Tests mit Benutzern zeigen von der Bestückung des Teststreifens bis zum manuellen Programmstart teils erhebliche Zeitunterschiede, so daß die vom Hersteller vorgegebene Reaktionszeit oft nicht eingehalten wird. Hinzu kommt, daß die vom Hersteller vorgegebene Blutmenge durch unsach­ gemäße Aufbringung auf den Teststreifen oftmals unterschritten wird und auch hierdurch das Meßergebnis erheblich verfälscht werden kann.Tests with users show from the assembly of the test strip to the manual program start sometimes considerable time differences, so that the response time specified by the manufacturer is often not adhered to. In addition, the amount of blood specified by the manufacturer due to improper appropriate application on the test strip is often undercut and this can also falsify the measurement result considerably.

Das Ziel der Erfindung ist, diese beiden für das Meßergebnis wesentlichen Vorgänge zu optimieren und dadurch die hier möglichen Fehlerquellen weit­ gehend auszuschalten. The aim of the invention is these two essential for the measurement result Optimize processes and thereby the possible sources of error going to turn off.  

Da diese Geräte ohnehin ihre Ergebnisse auf elektronischem Wege verarbeiten, bietet es sich an, diese beiden bisher manuellen Vorgänge in die elektroni­ sche Verarbeitung mit einzubeziehen.Since these devices process their results electronically anyway, it makes sense to integrate these two previously manual processes into the electroni incl. processing.

Dies kann erreicht werden dadurch, daß am Blutzucker-Teststreifen während des Blutauftrags eine laufende Blutmengenmessung stattfindet und das Er­ reichen eines Minimalwertes das Programm zur Blutzuckerbestimmung in Gang setzt. Hierfür bieten sich handelsübliche oder speziell zu fertigende Elektroden zur Leitfähigkeitsmessung oder Sensoren für entsprechende Meßmethoden an, deren Ergebnisse einer speziellen Datenverarbeitung und somit dem nachfolgenden Meßvorgang zugeführt werden.This can be achieved by using the blood sugar test strip during of the blood order, an ongoing blood volume measurement takes place and the Er a minimum value is enough to start the blood glucose test program puts. For this purpose there are commercially available or specially manufactured ones Electrodes for conductivity measurement or sensors for corresponding Measurement methods, the results of which are processed by a special data processing system thus be fed to the subsequent measuring process.
