Abstract

See full text

A hand-held test meter for use with an analytical test strip for the determination of an analyte in a bodily fluid sample includes a test meter housing with a housing outer surface and a distal end, a PCB disposed within the test meter housing; a SPC disposed in the test meter housing, and a metal shield plate securely attaching the strip port connector to the PCB. The SPC includes a SPC housing with at least one contact stopper rib, and plurality of electrical contacts (e.g., electrical contacts with a T-bar shaped distal end) disposed in the SPC housing. Each of the plurality of electrical contacts has a distal end and a test strip contact surface (TSCS). The TSCS of the electrical contact is configured for operable contact with an analytical test strip received in the SPC and the TSCS of the electrical contact is a smooth dimpled surface.
