Blood monitors

hi all

i am looking for a good blood monitr for my bloods that i cazn up load the resukltlst to ike the online dafne glosue diary.

i do not have an iphone or andriod phone.

by good if i can get one when i do my bloods that i can upload to the i=ternet with wf fi

does anyone know of such devices.

Are you looking to avoid manual input when uploading results?

Hi, we were looking at doing this with Lifescan meters, but the project seems to have stalled a bit at the moment. The person helping to do this, like Simon and Myself, was doing this voluntarily in their own time and obviously haven't had chance to progress it. If/when it is implemented we will let people know.
The lifescan meters can be connected to a PC via a 'free' USB cable and upload into their free SW, the plan is to use the same connection to upload the data to DAFNEOnline.

JWO - yes i am, i have the one of the accu-chek metres that i use where i have to than write doen the blood level in the dafne book.

i want a metre where i can do the blood test and also within the metre to say how much insulin i have given and than upload it to the internet via usb, wi fi etc.

marke - i think yes that sounds like what i am looking for any info on this be great

when you busy running around you have to try and find the book or than find a pen to write it in and than come to the computer to uload the data on to the dafne dairy which is look at the book and type in.

I use both the online diary and my own homemade booklet for recording my results.............

I find that a paper copy is very valuable as it is the basis of all things DAFNE, you can spot patterns there and then and get a picture of what is happening more accurately, for me the online diary gives a clean tidy format to present to your HCPs and conveniently gives you some BG averages which is nice when attempting to predict your HbA1c...............

Each to their own eh...........

thnaks all but i want to make it easier for me and others with the metres to find a way of doing this if dafen can do some software design for the differnet metres to uplaod into the dafne online dairy be great

Hi Graham,

I'm the one that was having a go at writing the meter upload software. As Marke said I've not had the time to progress it as much as I'd have liked to, but I know it will work with the Lifescan OneTouch UltraEASY and Lifescan OneTouch UltraSMART.

At the moment, the Lifescan OneTouch UltraSMART is the ONLY meter I know of that lets you record Insulin and Carb intake as well as your BG. I am hoping to get back to it at some point (not easy with 2 young children and moving house), but I would be happy to share the project with anyone that wants to lend a hand with coding and testing.

Hello,

I'm using a scripting language called AutoIT from http://www.autoitscript.com

I use it a lot at work and find it's good for quickly creating Windows applications.
