Method and apparatus for measuring body fluid constituents and storing and managing the test data and method of controlling and processing the test data
First Claim
1. A small-size, light-weight apparatus for measuring body fluid constituents and storing and managing the test data, comprising an analyzing section which optically measures a body fluid sample by use of a solid reagent, a microcomputer which receives the electric signal generated in the analyzing section, determines the timing of measurement, calculates the measured value from the amount of said received electric signal with reference to the standard amount of signal and calibration curve stored in the microcomputer, an operating section which gives operation instruction to the microcomputer from the outside, a display section which displays the results of measurement together with the instruction of operating procedure and operation redoing, a clock circuit, and a memory circuit which stores the results of measurement and the output of the clock circuit when the measurement is performed.

Abstract
A method for measuring body fluid constituents and storing the test data, which stores the measurement data of body fluid constituents measured by means of a small-size, light-weight, portable analyzing apparatus and a solid reagent, in the memory circuit of the apparatus, and after the required or specified number of measurement data has been stored, delivers the data into an external device. The external action data can also be stored. A method of controlling and processing the test data of body fluid constituents which stores one lot of data groups of each apparatus in an external unit together with the data for identifying the patient and displays the measurements of each patient calculated from one or a plurality of data groups of each analyzing apparatus in digital or analog form.
