Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a disposal container system enabling storage of used or contaminated articles having a generally flat, strip-shaped configuration, such as diagnostic biosensors. The disposal container is removably mountable to a supply container, and has an insertion portion provided in a wall of the disposal container. The insertion portion has a contour configured externally to guide deposit of a flat, strip-shaped article through a narrow slit, the contour further configured internally to deflect any loose articles in the interior space of the disposal container away from any accidental alignment with the slit which would cause free extraction of the articles. The disposal container may be configured for engagement with a supply container, such as a round or non-round vial, in a bottom-cap configuration or in a side-by-side configuration, by way of an engagement portion.

Abstract: A method is provided for contextualizing manual entries of blood glucose measures for a patient into a patient log of a portable computing device. The method includes: administering a structured collection procedure, where the structured collection procedure specifies two or more collection actions for obtaining blood glucose measures from a patient; generating a reminder notification for a given collection action of the structured collection procedure, where the given collection action is associated with a given event of patient; and displaying a data entry interface upon receipt of an acceptance input from a user in response to the reminder notification, where the data entry interface includes a first input for a blood glucose measure and a second input for an event associated with the blood glucose measure, such that value for the second input is defaulted to the given event from the reminder notification.
