The system is also designed to evolve in the future, bringing new capabilities and features to help people with diabetes manage their condition.ġ Christiansen M et al.

The CONTOUR® DIABETES App presents blood glucose readings in a simple, intuitive and easy-to-review way, which may help improve a patient's engagement with and understanding of their results. CONTOUR® NEXT ONE meter results go beyond the industry standards, by coming within 8.4% of a lab reading. That means that readings on a meter can be 15% higher or lower, compared to the lab. Canadian industry standards for blood glucose meters have an acceptable error range of 15% 1 from lab readings.

Published study data has shown the CONTOUR® NEXT ONE meter to be remarkably accurate. "The value for both patients and healthcare professionals in having easy access to highly accurate data that tracks their condition over time could be significant," he added. "At Ascensia Diabetes Care we are dedicated to helping improve the lives of people with diabetes. The launch of the CONTOUR® NEXT ONE blood glucose monitoring system is the latest of our high quality solutions to meet the needs of the diabetes community," explained Russ Newsome, Region Head of North America, Ascensia Diabetes Care. Not only does the CONTOUR® NEXT ONE system simplify diabetes management and help make it easier for more people with diabetes to use their smartphone to manage their condition, it has also been demonstrated to be one of the most accurate systems to date provided by Ascensia Diabetes Care. The blood glucose measurements and patterns that are identified can also be shared with healthcare professionals to help support management plans. The app combines these with other data input by the patient to provide detailed information about their condition that can help them understand how their daily activities may impact their blood glucose results, including alerts for critical high or critical low readings. The CONTOUR® NEXT ONE meter connects to the CONTOUR® DIABETES App, a mobile app that collects, stores and analyzes patient blood glucose readings from the meter. The system features an easy-to-use wireless-enabled smart meter that links to a smart phone via Bluetooth™. As part of the system, the CONTOUR® NEXT ONE meter and CONTOUR® DIABETES App seamlessly connect to allow the app to capture the meter's remarkably accurate blood glucose readings. 29, 2016 /CNW/ - Ascensia Diabetes Care today announced the approval of the CONTOUR® NEXT ONE blood glucose monitoring system (BGMS) in Canada, one of the next steps in the evolution of self-monitoring of blood glucose.
