ABSTRACT:
A self contained disposable test unit for testing body fluid comprises a body member and a support member. The support member is moveable with respect to the body member between a first position and a second position. The support member includes a body part receiving surface for receiving a patient's body part. A lancet is carried by the body member and includes a lancet tip capable of piercing the skin of a patient to produce fluid flow. A test member is capable of interacting with body fluid to aid in the determination of information about body fluid components. A capillary member is capable of directing fluid flow to the test member. A pressure cup is capable of exerting pressure on a body part to foster fluid flow out of a lanced site and into the capillary, and a calibration member is provided for containing information for facilitating calibration of the test unit.
