Abstract: A test sensor container for use with an analyte measuring system may include a cartridge that includes a base, two opposite sidewalls extending away from the base, and a plurality of compartments each dimensioned to hold a test sensor. At least one of the two opposite sidewalls is oriented at an acute angle relative to a reference axis that is perpendicular to the base. The test sensor container may further include at least one foil cover sealing the plurality of compartments and an ejection mechanism.

Abstract: An over-cap device for use with containers having caps. The over-cap device includes an outer wall, a cap engagement wall, and a spacing wall. The cap engagement wall may non-releasably engage an outer surface of the cap and the spacing wall may engage a top surface of the cap. The cap may releasably engage a container.

Abstract: A test sensor container (400) is designed for use with an analyte measuring system (40). The test sensor container (100) may include a cartridge (200) including a plurality of stacked individual compartments (202) connected to one another in an accordion-style fashion. Each individual compartment (202) is collapsible from an expanded to a collapsed condition and is dimensioned to hold a test sensor (6) when in the expanded condition. The test sensor container further includes at least one foil cover (116) sealing the plurality of compartments (102, 202).

Abstract: A blood sampler device includes a blood collector and a sampler body. The blood collector is designed to collect a sample of a fluid, such as blood, from a user and to be inserted into the sampler body, such that the collected blood can be discharged into a liquid chamber in the sampler body to mix with a liquid stored in the liquid chamber for testing. The blood collector includes vents that are designed to facilitate the flow of air out of the liquid chamber during this insertion, such that a lower and more consistent pressurization can be achieved within the liquid chamber. This design may also increase user comfort and enhance the accuracy of testing performed on the collected fluid.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to packaging containers for holding a plurality of test sensors. The packaging container may include a first semi-circular housing and a second semi-circular housing. The first semi-circular housing has a plurality of first test sensor containing regions. Each of the plurality of the first test sensor containing regions is adapted to contain at least one test sensor having a top portion covered by a foil cover. The second semi-circular housing has a plurality of second test sensor containing regions. Each of the plurality of the second test sensor containing regions is adapted to contain at least one test sensor. The second semi-circular housing has a top portion. The first semi-circular housing and the second semi-circular housing are positioned adjacent to each other. The first semi-circular housing further comprises an outer wall extending in a non-perpendicular direction away from the top portion.

Abstract: A lancing device formed from a main body and a cap. The main body is configured from a lower housing, an upper housing extending over a portion of the lower housing, and an actuator operatively engaged to the upper and lower housings with the actuator extending along the portion of the lower housing not covered by the upper housing. The upper housing further includes an actuator button, wherein a lancet may be placed within the body such that movement of the actuator from a first position to a second position away from said endcap cocks the lancet for firing, which is achieved by depressing the actuator button. Conveniently, the lancing device is configured for tactile recognition in the palm of a human hand and may preferably be operated one handed and without visual observation.
