The software analyzes data from a patient\u2019s insulin pump, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device, and blood glucose meter to identify the most important patient information in one easy-to-use dashboard. In addition, the software offers therapy considerations that clinicians can use as a starting point to discuss therapy changes with their patients to help improve glucose control.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cCareLink Pro is a definite step forward in diabetes therapy management software, providing all the important information in an easily digestible format. With it in our hands, our consultations will be more productive and efficient,\u201d said Pratik Choudhary, M.D., Senior Lecturer &amp; Honorary Consultant, King\u2019s College Hospital, London.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The new Therapy Management Dashboard provides a snapshot of the patient\u2019s key insulin delivery and glucose information on one page. In addition, it pinpoints the exact times the patient experienced a low (hypoglycemic) or high (hyperglycemic) glucose pattern and prioritizes these patterns so that clinicians know which times of day are the biggest challenges for their patients.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The new Episode Summary highlights key events that occur prior to hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic episodes, providing clinicians with quick insights on potential areas that may need to be addressed. Furthermore, the Episode Summary offers therapy considerations so that clinicians can make the most informed treatment decisions possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe know diabetes management is complex and that gathering adequate information to make informed treatment decisions can be a challenge for clinicians and patients. Our goal with CareLink Pro 3 is to simplify this complexity by integrating patient data, helping providers identify patterns, and offering clinicians therapy considerations,\u201d said Francine R. Kaufman, M.D., Chief Medical Officer and Vice President, Global Medical, Clinical &amp; Health Affairs at Medtronic Diabetes. \u201cWe believe decision support is a key advancement toward developing an artificial pancreas, which will rely upon automated decisions to make adjustments to patients\u2019 therapy, and are excited to bring it to the medical community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">CareLink is an integral part of the MiniMed Paradigm\u00ae Veo System, which combines an insulin pump with CGM. The STAR 3 trial demonstrated that patients in all age groups (adults, teens, and children) using the Medtronic integrated system achieved a statistically significant reduction in A1C at three months, which was sustained over the course of one year. A1C is a measurement of glucose control over a two-to-three-month period.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/wwwp.medtronic.com\/Newsroom\/NewsReleaseDetails.do?itemId=1331563578884&amp;lang=en_US\" target=\"_blank\">Medtronic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Medtronic, Inc. today announced the international market launch of CareLink\u00ae Pro 3 Therapy Management Software, the first software program to offer advanced decision support to healthcare professionals managing diabetes.
