Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A testing system and method for providing a testing system includes a user interface having a display for displaying information relating to measurements of health data and an input device for receiving information from a user relating to the health data. Provided in connection with the user interface is an autologging feature adapted to provide the user with user-selectable options on the display. Also provided is a statistical operation adapted to provide the user with enhanced information relating to the measurements of health data. Also provided is at least one indicator for indicating information relating to the number of health data readings that are within a target range, the number of health data readings that are above the target range and the number of health data readings that are below the target range.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 - 24 . (canceled) 25 . A testing system for measuring a concentration of analyte in a body fluid sample, comprising: a housing having a port configured to receive a test sensor therein in a generally horizontal direction, the port being disposed along a horizontal axis of the housing; a display configured to display measurements of the analyte concentration of the body fluid; a plurality of soft keys for receiving input from the user and being disposed adjacent to the display, the plurality of soft keys being dynamically assigned to user-selectable options displayed on the display; and at least one processor configured to analyze the measurements of the analyte concentration of the body fluid, wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the display to display a plurality of user-selectable statistical operations, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the display to display each of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in a single horizontal line of text in a respective segment of the display, each respective segment extending in the generally horizontal direction and being parallel to the horizontal axis of the meter, and wherein each soft key adjacent to the display is aligned with a respective one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations displayed on the display. 26 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein each soft key adjacent to the display is assigned to the respective one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations. 27 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein each soft key adjacent to the display is operable to cause the display to display the statistical output associated with the respective one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations. 28 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein each soft key is further operable to cause the display to display components of the statistical output associated with the respective one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations. 29 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein the plurality of user-selectable statistical options includes a seven-day average, a fourteen-day average, and a thirty-day average. 30 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein the processor is further configured to simultaneously display, responsive to one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations being selected, (i) the statistical output associated with the selected one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations and (ii) a plurality of components of the statistical output associated with the selected one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations. 31 . The testing system of claim 30 , wherein each of the plurality of components of the statistical output is aligned with a respective one of the plurality of soft keys. 32 . The testing system of claim 25 , further comprising a continuous glucose monitor probe configured to collect the body fluid sample. 33 . The testing system of claim 25 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the display to rotate so as to correspond to different orientations of the housing. 34 . The testing system of claim 33 , wherein the rotation of the display allows the testing system to accommodate right hand users and left hand users. 35 . The testing system of claim 33 , wherein the display is a touch screen and the rotation of the display includes digitally rotating the information displayed thereon. 36 . The testing system of claim 33 , responsive to the display being in a first orientation, the display is configured to display a first one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in a first segment of the display and a last one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in a last segment of the display, and responsive to the housing rotating from the first orientation to a second orientation, the display is configured to display the first one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in the last segment of the display and the last one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in the first segment of the display. 37 . The testing system of claim 36 , responsive to the display being in the first orientation, the display is configured to display a central one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in a central segment of the display, and responsive to the housing rotating from the first orientation to the second orientation, the display is configured to display the central one of the plurality of user-selectable statistical operations in the central segment of the display.
