Executive Summary
Home Diagnostics plans to launch its TRUE2go and TRUEresult blood glucose meters in the fourth quarter after receiving US FDA 510(k) clearance for both devices. TRUE2go is the world's smallest blood glucose meter for on-the-go testing, the Fort Lauderdale, Florida firm claims, while TRUEresult is designed to be used at home. Both feature simplified no-coding technology by eliminating the need to code the meter with each new box of test strips. They can deliver results in four seconds and use a small sample size (0.5µl of blood), which makes it convenient and cost-effective for diabetics to test their blood glucose levels more often, Home Diagnostics said.
