METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING THRESHOLD BASED CORRECTION FUNCTIONS FOR BIOSENSORS

Application 1167/MUMNP/2006 published 2007-04-13, filed 2006-09-29
A biosensor system, method and apparatus are provided for implementing threshold based correction functions for biosensors. A primary measurement of an analyte value is obtained. A secondary measurement of a secondary effect is obtained and is compared with a threshold value. A correction function is identified responsive to the compared values. The correction function is applied to the primary measurement of the analyte value to provide a corrected analyte value. The correction method uses correction curves that are provided to correct for an interference effect. The correction curves can be linear or non-linear. The correction method provides different correction functions above and below the threshold value. The correction functions may be dependent or independent of the primary measurement that is being corrected. The correction functions may be either linear or nonlinear.
