Modular multi-analyte diagnostic test system

An analyte testing device, comprising:

• a plurality of modules, each module of the plurality of modules configured to perform one or more of a plurality of different analyte tests, each module of the plurality of modules comprising at least one sample port for receiving a blood sample;
• a base unit having a plurality of receptacles configured to receive the plurality of modules such that an electrical connection is established between the base unit and the plurality of modules, each module of the plurality of modules being configured to utilize the electrical connection to communicate a plurality of test results associated with the plurality of different analyte tests from each module of the plurality of modules to the base unit;
• at least one microprocessor configured to:
• calculate an amount of one or more different analytes in the blood sample;
• and
• prepare test results based on the calculated one or more different analytes;
• and
• a display configured to display test results from the at least one microprocessor.

A method of analyte testing, comprising:

• providing a first sample to a first module of a plurality of modules, and providing a second sample to a second module of the plurality of modules, each of the first module and the second module comprising:
• at least one sample port for receiving a sample;
• and
• at least one microprocessor configured to calculate an amount of one or more different analytes in the sample, and prepare test results based on the calculated one or more different analytes;
• performing, using the first module, a first plurality of tests on the first sample to determine a first set of test results;
• performing, using the second module, a second plurality of tests on the second sample to determine a second set of test results;
• communicating the first set of test results and the second set of test results to a base unit, the base unit having a plurality of receptacles configured to receive the plurality of modules such that an electrical connection is established between the base unit and the plurality of modules;
• and
• displaying the first set of test results and the second set of test results on a display device in electrical communication with the base unit.
