Expert Solution
Step 1EQUIPMENT ,IS DESIGNING A NEW AUTOMATED SYSTEM

A medical device for determine approximately ConcentraTION of glucose in blood.

A EQUIPMENT DESIGN AS AUTOMATED milligrams sample  USE OF BLOOD  to detect GLUCOSE level  .

 hospital glucometer-)it oh hand lunging  capacity  are designated transfer glucose result electronic medical record.

Volume of blood sample carries 0.3 to 1 ul 

Smaller volume of sample reduce the frequency unproductive picks.

Testing time - the times  read a test strips  from  3 to 60  sec.
