Mobile Devices for Healthcare Case Study

The Challenge

NUU for Business began working with a medical device customer that wanted to improve care for its diabetic patients. The idea was to utilize a mobile device that would act as a controller to be used with an insulin delivery system, administering timely injections. The device would need to use Bluetooth and NFC technology to communicate with the patient’s insulin pump and provide meal time injections (BOLUS) as well as integrating with the customers CGM (continuous glucose monitor), acting as an “artificial pancreas”, for BASAL injections. Aside from meeting the customers specifications, this device would also need to be able to obtain FDA certification, while still being an affordable option to patients.

The Results

The mobile Android devices provided by NUU for Business have been instrumental in making diabetes management easier for patients and have been life-changing for hundreds of thousands of customers. With this, NUU for Business’s customer has become a leader in prescribed insulin management systems for diabetics, especially with children given the ability for guardians to monitor their health. Both devices are deployed on AT&T both domestically and internationally. The long-term production of NUU’s devices, the NUU A1+ and its custom built solution, is a significant accomplishment given the standard 12-month production cycle in the industry.

This relationship showcases how NUU’s tailored solutions and support helped the customer overcome complex challenges and achieve significant success in the medical device industry.
