The Pogo Automatic Blood Glucose Monitoring System has been launched by Intuity Medical as the first and only FDA-approved automated device for consumers with diabetes to use.
The device features 10 tests in each cartridge that will automatically lance, collect a blood sample and produce a glucose reading with a single press. The device's all-in-one design means persons with diabetes don't need to carry separate lancets and test stripes, while also doing away with constant reloading. The unit is being launched at more than 2,200 Kroger Health pharmacy locations.
President and CEO of Intuity Medical Emory Anderson spoke on the Pogo Automatic Blood Glucose Monitoring System saying, "Intuity Medical is proud to share a joint commitment with Kroger Health pharmacies to make glucose testing simpler for customers with diabetes. We’ve done this by providing Pogo Automatic’s One-Step testing, which automatically does the work of lancing and blood collection, freeing people with diabetes from the hassles of traditional glucose testing."
