Diagnostics
Self-monitoring of blood glucose
Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is an important and integral component of modern therapy for diabetes. SMBG is recommended for people with diabetes to achieve a target level of glycemic control and thus achieve their HbA1c (also known as glycated haemoglobin or A1C) target. The goal of SMBG is to collect detailed information about blood glucose levels at many time points to enable maintenance of a more constant glucose level by more precise regimens.
Technology
Evolution of ventilators
India represents an attractive market for ventilators due to favorable demographics and the growing adoption of advanced technologies. The purchase criteria in the mechanical ventilators market is also changing with buyers laying greater emphasis on service, support, user-friendliness, and product design instead of prices and brand names. The non-invasive ventilation (NIV) mode is being preferred over the invasive ventilation because it caters to the need of patient safety and comfort.
