Abstract
An approach for detecting a transient error in a body fluid sample based on the shape of a response curve of a sensor is provided. The response curve is represented by an equation including at least one coefficient describing a curvature or slope of the response curve. The approach includes comparing the coefficient to a range of coefficients which includes coefficients of response curves corresponding to known analyte concentrations. The approach further includes detecting a transient error based on the comparison. In some examples of the approach, the comparison and detection are performed by a processing transient error detector executing computer readable instructions embodied in a non-transitory computer-readable medium. Other examples of the approach determine a concentration of the analyte based on the equation. Advantageously, various examples of the approach can expedite detection of transient errors at the time of measuring and before reporting sample result.
