  • Method Of Making A Multi-Layer Pad For Use In Determining An Analyte Concentration
    Publication number: 20180242913
    Abstract: A multi-layer pad that is adapted to be used in determining an analyte concentration is disclosed. The multi-layer pad includes a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. The first layer includes an enzyme wherein the enzyme is adapted to assist in determining the analyte concentration. The second layer is attached to a first surface of the first layer. The second layer is made of a skin-conforming material. The third layer is attached to a second surface of the first layer wherein the first layer is located between the second layer and the third layer. It is contemplated that the multi-layer pad may also be a two layer system.

  • Method of determining the concentration of an analyte in a body fluid and system in therefor
    Patent number: 7896819
    Abstract: A method of obtaining a body fluid sample for determining the concentration of an analyte in the body fluid sample comprises applying pressure to the skin of the user. The skin is stretched so as to create a tear in the skin such that the applied pressure causes the body fluid to flow from the tear. The body fluid flowing from the tear is collected. Disclosed is also a pressure member for applying pressure to and stretching skin in preparation for forming a tear in the skin.
