Abstract:
1. An apparatus for calibrating a bodily fluid sampling device, comprising: a porous material; a control solution bottle configured to hold an amount of control solution, the control solution being adapted to calibrate the bodily fluid sampling device; a coupling portion adapted to couple to the control solution bottle and receive the control solution from the bottle; a collection portion fluidly coupled to the coupling portion, the collection portion being adapted to collect the control solution from the bottle and deliver the control solution to the porous material, the collection portion has walls that define a collection cavity in which the control solution is collected, the walls of the collection portion are compressible for delivering the control solution to the porous material; and a dispensing portion fluidly coupled to the collection portion, the dispensing portion defining a cavity in which the porous material is received, wherein the porous material is compressible to pressurize the control solution and dispense the control solution to the bodily fluid sampling device when the porous material is compressed.
