Polytel® Wireless Glucose Meter Accessories (GMAs)
As we all know, some of the most recent glucose meters have built-in connectivity. However, tens of millions of patients already have glucose meters that they like. Having many test strips already purchased may be another reason to want to keep an existing glucose meters. We offer easy solutions for incorporating many legacy glucose meters into a diabetes monitoring solution.

Note 1: Due to a Bayer decision, perhaps to discourage telehealth applications, Ascensia Contour XT meters with serial numbers above 6000001 and Ascensia Contour Next EZ meters with serial numbers above A000001 require the GMA to be unplugged from the meter during measurement.
Note2: Both the TRUEmetrix and the TRUEresult require a cradle (obtainable from Trividia) to operate. Quoting Nipro: “To order a USB cable and/or docking station for your meter please call 1-866-476-3837.”
