Company Profile: 

GlySure has developed a continuous glucose monitoring system using an intravascular, optical fluorescence-based sensor to support clinical implementation of Tight Glycemic Control and Intensive Insulin Therapy. Infrequent glucose monitoring could be putting patient lives at risk. At present, clinicians do not have an easy, accurate and affordable technology to allow the frequent glucose monitoring required for Tight Glycemic Control (TGC) protocols.GlySure’s new technology exceeds the requirements of clinicians while also significantly reducing time and cost.
