Roche, 07/20/2012
Roche announced that it has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the Accu–Chek Combo system for insulin pump therapy. The Accu–Chek Combo system seamlessly combines a blood glucose meter with an insulin pump, which are able to exchange data in both directions via Bluetooth wireless technology. The meter not only enables the user to quickly test blood glucose levels: It allows for operating the insulin pump remotely and by means of an easy–to–handle bolus advisor it provides support in defining the right amount of insulin.
