A handheld diagnostic device having a test head and a handle is equipped
with an open test channel having sensors and liquid reagent dispensing
opening for the diagnostic testing of body fluids. The test channel can
draw in fluid sample by capillary force and be closed by a channel cover
for mixing the fluid sample with liquid reagent for electrochemical
reactions for providing measurement signals for diagnostic analysis by a
microprocessor included in the handle. A vibration means is added for
stimulating the production of the body fluid sample and for assisting
mixing of the sample solution. A renewable biosensor having a reusable
electrode system and a dispensing means for providing a new dose of
liquid reagent is included in the test head for repeated uses of the test
channel and the biosensor. A dual-dispensers system having two reagent
cartridges and two dispensing lines is included for simultaneous or
selective dispensing of reagents for multiple diagnostic testing. The
handheld device can be used for the self-diagnostic testing of saliva,
body fluid, blood and vagina fluid for home healthcare and for monitoring
predetermined components in a pourable fluid. For vagina fluid
applications, a handheld diagnostic device may include cream or foam
dispenser for dispensing vagina medication material, lubricant, or
spermicide.
