Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. has teamed with Dexcom to expand an existing partnership to include development of Dexcom?s latest continuous glucose monitoring system, the G4 Platinum. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the new CGM in October.
In addition to a compact receiver that attaches virtually anywhere on the body, the unit features a transmitter that sounds an alarm when blood glucose levels are high or low. It also has a USB port so that information can be downloaded and easily tracked, as well as shared with doctors or loved ones to target trouble spots in the user?s diabetes management.
?Dexcom?s G4 Platinum sensor is the most accurate and easiest to use technology available, and fits well with our product development plans,? says Kim Blickenstaff, Tandem?s president and CEO.
