1. An apparatus for detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid sample, said apparatus comprising:

  • a casing having a display;

    a test strip;

    a light shield placed in contact with said test strip, wherein said light shield minimizes the effect of fluid channeling along the length of said test strip by providing pressure across the width of said test strip;

    a processor mounted in said casing;

    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

    a removable cover installed on the diagnostic device so as to prevent said first sensor from sensing ambient light thereby preventing said diagnostic device from activating.
