The device sends the captured information to a companion mobile application in real-time via Bluetooth technology.

The Mallya connected device can be reused for two years and provides track records of dose delivered, insulin type, and time and date for each injection.

The device, which can be used with existing platforms and digital solutions, comes with audio and visual signals intended to guide patients during the injection process.

Last month, Biocorp secured the European CE-Mark for Mallya as a class IIb medical device.
