Glucose and BP Wristtop Monitor

Filed under: Medicine , Pediatrics

In another new in the world of consumer diabetes products, as being reported at Diabetes Mine, the DUO-CARE™ is a portable 'wristtop' device that can measure glucose levels as well as blood pressure, all in one machine. From Amy Tenderich at Diabetes Mine:

...those stay-at-home older patients might find this handy if not a bit too space-age for them. In case you're wondering, blood pressure is measured using the wrist cuff, while you do have to follow the usual procedure -- insert a test strip and bleed on it -- to get your BG results.

Just because you wear it on your wrist doesn't mean it's non-invasive :)
