Glytec CEO Ed Furlong said: “Our algorithmic decision support software has been helping hospital clinicians optimise glycemic management for nearly two decades, and we’ve seen the positive impact it can have.

“The fact that Roche understands the importance of inpatient glycemic management and chose Glytec as the first software partner for the revolutionary device it’s designing speaks volumes about the technology we’ve built and the direction the market is headed.”

Under this partnership, the Glucommander software application will run on Roche’s blood glucose system called cobas pulse that has been developed to improve patient safety by enabling point-of-care clinicians to collect and take action on glycemic management data.

The integration of the hardware and software is expected to help nurses and physicians fix the gap between getting data and taking action.
