The Tape Specialities’ game-changing diabetes self-management system allows users to easily and frequently measure both their HbA1c and BG glucose levels anywhere, anytime. HbA1c is a crucial indicator to measure, as it provides a longer-term average of an individual’s blood glucose levels over an extended period of time, often 2-3 months. Care strategy for people with type 2 diabetes includes a HbA1c test at a clinic every 6-months. Being able to measure HbA1c at home will give them better control of their diabetes and help reduce the risk of developing dangerous complications significantly.
