Abstract:
1. A method of determining blood glucose concentration with a glucose measurement system that comprises a test strip and test meter, the test meter having a microcontroller configured to apply a plurality of test voltages to the test strip and measure at least a current transient output resulting from an electrochemical reaction in a test chamber of the test strip, the method comprising: inserting the test strip into a strip port connector of the test meter to connect at least two electrodes coupled to the test chamber of the test strip to a strip measurement circuit; initiating a test sequence after deposition of a sample, in which the initiating comprises: measuring at least one of: calculating a glucose concentration of the sample from at least one of the first, second, third, fourth, or fifth current outputs such that bias in the glucose concentration is less than ±10% for glucose concentrations less than 75 mg/dL in hematocrits ranging from about 20% to about 60%.
