A sensor array designed to be continuously indexed through a compatible blood glucose test monitor for the purpose of conducting multiple consecutive blood glucose measurements. The sensor array can be configured to substantially conform to a non-planar surface. In one embodiment, the sensor array includes first and second test sensors which are hingedly coupled together through a pin and socket interconnection. In another embodiment, the sensor array includes a unitary, non-conductive substrate which is scored to define one or more fold lines, a first set electrodes deposited on the substrate to define a first test sensor, and a second set of electrodes deposited on the substrate to define a second test sensor. In another embodiment, the sensor array includes a first test sensor, a second test sensor spaced apart from said first test sensor, a first spacer mounted on the first test sensor, a second spacer mounted on the second test sensor, and a unitary flexible member disposed across said first and second spacers. |
