[Diabetes-Talk] next cgm innovation

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

When you say the "patch" will weigh 10% less, do you mean the sensor that
sticks to you, or the actual transmitter? Because the sensors already very
light weight, like a sticker. I can't imagine it weighing less than it
already does, grin.

Will be microneedles on a patch and it will weigh about 10% of what the
sensors do today.  Microneedles are many and shorter than existing needles
and less painful to use.  This should make patches stay on better once
placed.  A swedish company has this in the works now and it's just a matter
of getting it through testing and onto the market.  I read about this on
facebook earlier today.
