<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To develop a method for determining sample volume adequacy, that is, a method not requiring the stop of a specimen concentration measuring test for determining that the volume of the sample is insufficient. <P>SOLUTION: Methods an systems are provided for determining whether a volume of a biological sample is adequate to produce an accurate electrochemical analyte concentration measurement. Certain such methods and systems provide the additional function of compensating for a sample volume determined to be less than adequate in order to proceed with an accurate analyte concentration measurement. A biosensor is employed such as an electrochemical test strip to which the sample volume of a biological solution is deposited, and a meter configured to receive such test strip and to measure the concentration of selected analyte within the biological sample. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO |
