PORTABLE DEVICE FOR MEASURING BLOOD SAMPLES

摘要

The invention relates to a device for measuring and monitoring glucose content of blood. The invention is especially applicable for users with diabetes disease. In a device of the present invention sample input aperture (24) can be blocked when it is not in use. The blocking can be implemented with a sliding cover (21), which blocks either the input for the sample strip (24) or the connection for a data cable (11). It is possible to prevent impurities accessing the sensor of the measurement unit (14), and obtain required electrical isolation when a data cable is connected to the electrical connection (11). In addition to measurement functions, the device may have functionalities for monitoring diet or even for playing games.
