A method and system is provided to allow for determination of substantially Hematocrit independent analyte concentration. In one example, an analyte measurement system is provided that includes a test strip and a test meter. The test strip includes a reference electrode and a working electrode, in which the working electrode is coated with a reagent layer. The test meter includes an electronic circuit and a signal processor. The electronic circuit applies a plurality of voltages to the reference electrode and the working electrode over respective durations. The signal processor is configured to determine a substantially hematocrit-independent concentration of the analyte from a plurality of current values as measured by the processor upon application of a plurality of test voltages to the reference and working electrodes over a plurality of durations interspersed with rest voltages lower than the test voltages being applied to the electrodes.

Systems and methods for determining a substantially hematocrit independent analyte concentration

Described herein is an electrochemical enzymatic analyte test strip and method for making the test strip. The test strip utilizes isolated conductive areas inside the electrodes to define electrode whiskers. The method utilizes laser ablation to define electrode patterns.

Test strip comprising patterned electrodes

A method for determining an analyte concentration in blood is described that reduces the effects of hematocrit using a test strip attached to a test meter. The test strip includes a working electrode and a reference electrode. The test meter applies a test voltage between the working electrode and the reference electrode. After a user applies a blood sample containing an analyte onto the test strip, the test meter measures a plurality of test currents for a test time interval.
