Really have to put this one up... nice short piece about a wonderful gadget maybe... not so sure about the slim person they have in the photo tho... 8)
iPro 2 is designed for use by physicians now the system has the European CE mark, and awaiting FDA regulatory approval.... it doesn't require the patient to do anything with it beside wearing it.
Patients wear the small, lightweight and watertight device while going about their normal daily activities before returning it to their physicians’ office for evaluation.
"The reports are useful for educating and motivating patients to implement changes in their diabetes management after viewing the effects that specific foods, exercise, stress, and medications have on their glucose levels."
I suspect it's not available for us oiks to buy in Boots as yet... :(
