Insulet, LifeScan Partner Up

Insulet and LifeScan have entered a partnership through which the latter’s OneTouch blood-glucose monitoring technology will be integrated into the former’s OmniPod Personal Diabetes Manager. They will develop a new PDM for the OmniPod tubeless Insulin pump system and expect to bring it to market in 2013. It will work with the next generation OmniPod, which is currently awaiting 510(k) clearance.
