Telcare’s New iPhone App Connects to Glucose Meters Even Oceans Apart

 

   Telcare, the maker of the Telcare BGM cellular enabled blood glucose meter, has released an iPhone app that can  gather data from the meter even if they’re physically apart.

This not only allows you to watch your own glucose, but a parent of a diabetic child can make sure the kid takes regular readings and almost immediately know what the output is.

  • Track from anywhere: This new  app combines the power of cellular technology with the newest Apple  development tools to synchronize blood glucose, medication and nutrition data from anywhere. With each blood glucose test taken with the Telcare  BGM, the app is instantly updated with the newest BG number. For  non-Telcare BGM users, the App provides a user-friendly way to update each blood glucose log.

  • Discover trends: With over ten professionally designed graphs and charts, users are able identify trends      based on Time of Day, Prescription Adherence, Target Zones, Day of the  Week, Standard Deviation, Before and After Meals, Before and After    Activity, and more. Users are also able to generate and email a one page,      physician-optimized report in approximately 5 seconds. All data can be  exported to Microsoft Excel.

  • Share data with others: All      data are automatically stored at www.mytelcare.com, Telcare’s HIPAA-compliant cloud server. Users are      able to automatically share their data with health professionals, family      members, and others who may be involved in their care. This feature is      particularly important to the parents of children with diabetes and to the      adult children of elderly people with diabetes.
