Launch of plug & play blood glucose meter


Bayer is launching a blood glucose meter with a built-in USB that plugs into a computer to provide users with instant access to information that can help optimise diabetes management.

 

Contour USB is a meter that connects directly to a PC or Mac and can store up to 2,000 test results. Bayer says this is the first plug and play meter that opens up Glucofacts Deluxe diabetes management software, which permits patients to routinely track their own blood glucose levels.

 

The meter has a bright colour display that shows average, high and low readings with customisable features such as pre- and post-meal marking. It also features 500MB extra memory for storage of personal diabetes information and has a rechargeable battery that can charge from a USB port or via the optional wall charger.

 

The meter uses Contour blood glucose test strips currently available on prescription.

 

Price: £24.99
