Roche is adding a new module to its mySugar app, called mySugar Pump Control, that lets users control their Accu-Chek Insight insulin pump virtually.
Patients using the new tool are able to import data, view status and remotely deliver a standard bolus. Additionally, users can tap into the mySugar Bolus Calculator, which assists users in calculating the level of insulin needed for a meal and correction boluses.
The company will start rolling out the technology is Austria and is expected to soon roll out in the Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Italy and the U.K.
