Filed in archive Developments on September 29, 2006

An interesting new product has emerged, perfectly in sync with this 'wired' world: diabetes software.

US-based healthcare firm Medtronic Inc. plans to launch in India a software for doctors to monitor, track and diagnose diabetes.

Talking to CyberMedia News in Chennai, Adrian Gut, Business manager of Diabetes Business of Medtronic said that the software was being developed at Los Angeles, the North American headquarters of the company.

"The software is targeted at doctors, who would be able to analyze the patients blood-sugar levels and find the average fluctuations using our pumps, which works on radio-telemetry system," he said, adding that the software would also suggest how much insulin has to be given at and at what time to the patient.

Hooray for modern technology.
