ASCENSIA Diabetes Care yesterday announced the Australian launch of its Contour Next One blood glucose monitoring platform.
The Contour Next One smart meter (pictured) seamlessly connects via Bluetooth to a smartphone app, making "capturing highly accurate blood glucose readings effortless for people with diabetes," the company said.
The app intelligently analyses readings to deliver meaningful feedback aimed at improving diabetes self-management.
Users can also record meals, exercise and medications to provide context around readings and help them to understand how everyday activities impact management.
Patients can also share detailed reports of their blood glucose readings and patterns with their healthcare professional, either in advance or on the day of their appointment, to help create more informed decisions.
The meter includes the "smartLIGHT" feature that gives instant feedback on blood glucose readings, and "Second-Chance Sampling" which prompts reapplication of blood if there is not enough used the first time.
