The diabetes management system is built around the principles of mobile, wireless technology including an insulin patch pump, a wireless, touch screen handset with a built-in blood glucose monitor, and an extendable applications set.

The Cellnovo handset wirelessly transmits and receives real-time data to a portal for patients and caregivers to use.

Kings College London Diabetes clinical lecturer Pratik Choudhary said Cellnovo has created the insulin pump that combines form with function, essential qualities in a device that patients have to interact with 24/7.
