This week, Roche Diagnostics held a media briefing to launch the Accu-Chek SmartGuide® continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) solution – the first AI-enabled CGM system available in South Africa.
Diabetes is one of today’s most urgent healthcare challenges. As of 2024, 4.2 million people in South Africa are living with the condition.
The Accu-Chek SmartGuide® solution provides up to 14 days of accurate real-time glucose values for adults living with diabetes.
Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled algorithms can predict glucose levels up to two hours ahead and overnight, empowering users to take action before a glucose excursion occurs.
By helping people take action before their glucose levels move out of range, SmartGuide provides more proactive, data-driven diabetes care.
