Handheld medical logging apparatus and method
First Claim
1. A handheld medical logging apparatus for recording and logging data related to a person'"'"'s blood glucose level, said apparatus comprising:
- measuring means adapted to measure a glucose level in a blood sample, one or more buttons, control circuitry operatively coupled to the one or more buttons and adapted to, in response to an activation of a specific button amongst the one or more buttons, directly enter an event logging mode, in which mode an occurrence of one or more events from a set of events may be recorded in the apparatus, wherein each of said events may affect the blood glucose level and is represented by a predetermined code, wherein the control circuitry, in the event logging mode, is adapted to interpret one or more activations of the one or more buttons as the code representing an event and create a signal indicative of the occurred event, a memory operatively coupled to the control circuitry and adapted to receive the signal, and in response thereof record the occurrence of the event represented by the code.

Abstract
A handheld medical logging apparatus for recording and logging data related to a person'"'"'s blood glucose level comprises measuring means adapted to measure a glucose level, one or more buttons, and control circuitry coupled to the buttons. The control circuitry is adapted to, in response to an activation of a specific button, directly enter an event logging mode, in which mode an occurrence of events may be recorded in the apparatus, wherein each event may affect the blood glucose level and is represented by a predetermined code. The control circuitry is further, in the event logging mode, adapted to interpret activations of the buttons as the code representing an event and create a signal indicative of the occurred event. The apparatus further comprises a memory coupled to the control circuitry and adapted to receive the signal, and in response thereof record the occurrence of the event.

8. A method for recording and logging data related to a person'"'"'s blood glucose level in a handheld medical logging apparatus comprising one or more buttons and a measuring means adapted to measure a glucose level in a blood sample, said method comprising:
-
receiving an indication in the apparatus that a specific button among the one or more buttons has been activated, in direct response to the received indication, the apparatus entering an event logging mode, wherein an occurrence of one or more events from a set of events may be recorded in the apparatus, each of said events may affect the blood glucose level and is represented by a predetermined code, in the event logging mode receiving in the apparatus one or more button activations specifying one of the codes representing an event, wherein the occurrence of said event is recorded in the apparatus.
