Abstract
A measurement module for glucose testing includes a glucose testing measurement module housing, a test strip receptacle formed in the housing, and a connector portion formed in the housing and shaped to permit mechanical removable attachment of the housing to a hand-held computer. Electronics determine the amount of glucose present in a sample of body fluid, when the test strip is positioned in the receptacle and the body fluid is placed on a test strip, and communicate the glucose amount to the hand-held computer via the connector portion.

41. A measurement module for use with a hand-held processing device, comprising:
-
a housing having a mounting portion and an extension portion; a strip port in the extension portion, wherein the strip port includes a test strip interface having circuitry for connecting to a received test strip and delivering an electrical signal from the received test strip to a hand-held processing device; an electrical interface within the mounting portion, which electrically couples to the hand-held processing device and delivers the electrical signal to the hand-held processing device; and a mechanical interface about the mounting portion, which physically and removably attaches the measurement module to the hand-held processing device so as to form a detachably integrated unit; wherein, when the measurement module is attached to the hand-held processing device, the mounting portion is within the hand-held processing device, and the extension portion protrudes outside of the hand-held processing device. - View Dependent Claims (42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49)
