* Estimate.

The Diabetes segment includes the user and revenue development for three eHealth product categories for people with diabetes: (1) connected medical devices designed for diabetes patients to use at home (Smart Devices), (2) digital diabetes applications for smartphone and/or tablets (Apps) and (3) telemedical services for diabetes patients (Telemedical Services). Hardware and software solutions for healthcare professionals, e.g. medical equipment for hospitals and doctors’ surgeries are not included.

The Smart Devices segment covers medical diabetes devices (hardware) which are equipped with dedicated interfaces or SIM cards that serve to transmit measurement data across a wireless connection (e.g. via mobile networks, WiFi, bluetooth, M2M technologies, NFC, BLE). For example, connected glucose meters, systems for continuous glucose monitoring (CGMs) or connected insulin injection devices (e.g. Telcare, Freestyle Libre from Abbott or the MiniMed Veo Insulin Pump from Medtronic). The measurement data can be sent to a smartphone and be synchronized with an app or, when there is an increased need for monitoring, the data can also be sent to a telemedical service center. Depending on the measuring system, additional hardware revenues can fall under this market segment if additional reading or transmitting devices are implemented.
