Simple and safe monitoring system
dIABETICS today are no longer passive figures in treatment, but in active partnerships with doctors to achieve control of their conditions. The goal: To ensure prescribed treatment and diet and to maintain blood glucose levels within the normal range.
The patient’s tool: A blood glucose monitoring system combining reliable, safe and less painful features in one convenient package – The Medisafe Mini Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Medisafe’s most appealing and prominent feature is the unique, senior citizen-friendly design. The meter is designed to fit comfortably within the hand’s grasp during operation, thus preventing a sudden loss of grip.
One other significant feature of Medisafe is the absence of the calibration step. In the past, incor- rect calibration of test strips may produce inaccurate measuring numbers.
It also has a 3-D test tip which effectively removes users’ stress over attaching and detaching test tips to/from the reader. This feature overcomes the difficulty seniors face when handling thin test strips.
These new 3-D test tips are individually packed with desiccant to prevent quality degradation. Moreover, the test tip ejector enables users to safely dispose bloodcontaminated tips after use without having to touch the tips.
Terumo’s spirit of caring for its users is reflected in the Medisafe Finetouch lancets. Terumo is renowned for the technological design of these lancets, which require only shallow skin penetration to efficiently obtain blood samples. The decrease in pain experienced by users was reported in a German clinical study where subjects reported less pain with Finetouch lancets.
