Medtronic和Bayer将综合产品带到美国

Medtronic and Bayer宣布他们将在未来几年内伴侣开发“全球患者创新的下一代糖尿病管理系统。”While this is not a new partnership (since 2007, Bayer and Medtronic have offered Bayer’s Contour Link meter that wirelessly connects to Medtronic pumps and CGM devices to users in over 20 countries outside the US), the companies’ intention to make these products available in the US for the first time is exciting news. While few details have been released, we know that Bayer has submitted a meter to the FDA, and we suspect this meter will be compatible with new Medtronic pumps and CGM if it is approved. Bayer and Medtronic plan to eventually deliver integrated products that are smaller, easier to use, and more accurate than current offerings, but few details on timing have been disclosed.

这些新的发展恰逢塞进尔和生活方式之间的三年伙伴关系结论，公司通过该公司提供了一个Liflescan OneTouch UltraLink Meter，这些电流仪在美国无线连接到Medtronic产品。现在，LifeScan-Medtronic合同已经实现，Medtronic将扩大与拜耳的关系，而Lifescan将专注于与J＆J子公司Animas的合作。虽然拜耳和Medtronic等待美国综合系统的批准，但Lifescan的UltraLink将继续向Medtronic用户提供。--js.
