Abstract
An electrochemical test sensor includes a lid and a base. The base has a length and a width. The length of the base is greater than the width of the base. The base includes at least a working electrode, a counter electrode and at least three test-sensor contacts for electrically connecting to a meter. The at least three test-sensor contacts are spaced along the length of the base from each other. The base and the lid assist in forming a fluid chamber for receiving the fluid sample. The electrochemical test sensor further includes a reagent to assist in determining the concentration of the analyte in the fluid sample.

An electrochemical test sensor adapted to assist in determining the concentration of an analyte in a fluid sample, the test sensor comprising:
- a lid;
- and
- a base having a length and a width, the length of the base being greater than the width of the base, the base including at least a working electrode, a counter electrode and at least three test-sensor contacts for electrically connecting to a meter, the at least three test-sensor contacts being staggered along the width of the base from each other and being spaced along the length of the base from each other, the base and the lid assisting in forming a fluid chamber for receiving the fluid sample, and
- wherein the electrochemical test sensor further includes a reagent to assist in determining the concentration of the analyte in the fluid sample.
