Smart Meter, a leading supplier of cellular remote patient monitoring (RPM) solutions, has announced the release of iGlucose Plus, the latest iteration of its patented cellular-connected glucose meter. This new device is designed to improve diabetes management for both patients and healthcare providers by offering real-time blood glucose monitoring and multi-language capabilities.
iGlucose Plus simplifies diabetes management by eliminating the need for synching, pairing, or dependence on smartphones and Wi-Fi. It features built-in cellular technology that automatically transmits blood glucose readings to healthcare providers, facilitating real-time tracking of glucose levels from any location.
The device boasts a color LED screen, enhancing user experience by providing clear instructions and results. This feature is intended to boost patient satisfaction and adherence to testing protocols. Additionally, iGlucose Plus can receive notifications and reminders directly on the device, including dietary suggestions and prescription pick-up alerts, further supporting patient management.
Notably, iGlucose Plus includes Spanish language prompts, thereby expanding access to diabetes care for Spanish-speaking patients. The device’s cellular connectivity also allows for over-the-air software updates, offering the flexibility to add new features at the patient level.
“Smart Meter continues to invest heavily in R&D to improve our solutions to make it easier for patients to test more consistently and improve their outcomes. The new iGlucose Plus is an excellent example of that,” stated Casey Pittock, CEO of Smart Meter. “Its enhanced battery life, stronger cellular connectivity, and remote programming capability—combined with our proprietary AI-driven glucose test strip auto replenishment service—make it an exceptional value for our customers and their patients.”
Smart Meter aims to disrupt the remote blood glucose monitoring market with iGlucose Plus, presenting a patient-friendly solution that meets the increasing demand for RPM and chronic care management. This launch follows the company's introduction of two blood pressure monitors and two weight management monitoring solutions last year.
iGlucose Plus, branded as the new version of the cellular-connected glucose meter, builds on its predecessor by offering advanced features that improve access to accurate diabetes management technology. The device’s ease of use, with no requirement for synching or pairing, and its automatic transmission of results via cellular technology, position it as a significant advancement in the field.
In summary, the iGlucose Plus is set to revolutionize remote blood glucose monitoring by providing an accessible, reliable, and technologically advanced tool for diabetes management. With features such as enhanced battery life, stronger cellular connectivity, and remote programming, combined with AI-driven test strip auto replenishment, iGlucose Plus represents a substantial value for both patients and healthcare providers.
