Available in Europe from May 2022,the two companies will start offering this new diabetes data solution,enabling patients to share their data with healthcare professionals easily both in the physicians' office and remotely from home. This integration will allow healthcare professionals to view the patient's latest health records more frequently,in-person at the clinic or remotely via Glooko's analytics portal.

Additionally,as a next step,both companies are working on a unique way of transferring recorded data from the MEDISAFE WITH™insulin patch pump to the Glooko Mobile App directly via NFC (near field communication),which is planned to be launched in Europe later this year. MEDISAFE WITH™will be the world's first insulin patch pump with direct NFC connection to the Glooko Mobile App,utilizing patients' personal smart phones to share their diabetes data with their diabetes team anytime,anywhere.

"We are excited to announce this new patient-focused collaboration with Glooko. These new solutions will allow people with diabetes to upload their data from home easily without the need to visit the hospital. We believe this is a valuable solution for both patients and healthcare providers especially under the post COVID-19 'new normal' lifestyle," commented Hikaru Samejima,President of Terumo's General Hospital Company.

Terumo has been a player in the diabetes market for approximately 40 years,since 1982,providing a wide range of products globally such as insulin injection needles,blood glucose meters and insulin pumps. In November 2020,Terumo obtained CE mark for MEDISAFE WITH™,and is expanding its product availability globally. Currently,Glooko's solutions are used in 31 countries,digitally connecting people with diabetes and their healthcare professional teams. This integration enables more timely information sharing and more powerful remote patient management for better care.

We are very pleased to expand our partnership with Terumo by integrating Glooko's data management and remote patient monitoring platform with the MEDISAFE WITH™insulin patch pump. This means people with diabetes will be able to make more informed decisions with their data,and collaborate with their health care team.
