Abstract
A fluid analyzing system includes a handheld device and a management system. The handheld device includes a fluid analysis control module and a telematics device. The fluid analysis control module is configured for initiating acquisition of a sample of a fluid and providing the sample to a microfluidic analyzer for conduction of a microfluidic analysis. The telematics device is coupled with the fluid analysis control module and configured with a wireless transceiver. The management system is located remotely from the telematics device, and configured for wirelessly receiving results of the microfluidic analysis transmitted from the telematics device.
