Abstract:
An improved electronic diagnostic device for detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid sample comprises a casing having a display, a test strip mounted in the casing, a processor mounted in the casing, and a first sensor mounted in the casing and operatively coupled to the processor. The processor is configured to receive a signal from the first sensor when the device is exposed to ambient light thereby causing the device to become activated. The device includes a light shield that exerts pressure across a width of the test strip to prevent fluid channeling along the length of the test strip. The processor is configured to present an early positive test result reading when a measured value exceeds a predetermined early reading threshold value at any time after a predetermined early testing time period.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of making a diagnostic device, said diagnostic device comprising a casing, a processor mounted in said casing, and a first sensor operatively coupled to said processor, wherein said first sensor is configured to provide a signal to said processor when said first sensor detects ambient light, and said diagnostic device is capable of detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid sample once activated, said method comprising covering said first sensor of said diagnostic device so as to prevent said first sensor from sensing ambient light thereby preventing said diagnostic device from activating.
