A new blood glucose monitor, unveiled today, connects directly to Nintendo DST and Nintendo DST Lite gaming systems and was designed specifically for children with diabetes.
Bayer’s DIDGET™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System
Keeping children actively engaged in their diabetes routine is essential. To help encourage consistent testing habits, Bayer developed the DIDGET™ blood glucose monitoring system. This unique tool rewards children for testing with points they can use with their Nintendo DS™ or Nintendo DS™ Lite system, and on Bayer’s New Web Community your exclusive web community for children with diabetes.
Designed Exclusively for Children
We know that children with diabetes have unique challenges and responsibilities. And parents know that a good way to motivate children to do anything—from homework to household chores to blood glucose testing—is to engage them with something they love to do. That’s why we designed Bayer’s DIDGET™ meter—to give children a fun and effective way to take charge of their diabetes management.
Adds Fun to Routine Testing
Bayer’s DIDGET™ meter rewards consistent testing habits with points that can be used with the exclusive Knock Em Downs™: World’s Fair video game for use with Nintendo DS™ , Nintendo DS™ Lite or on Bayer’s New Web Community. Children earn points for regular daily testing, with additional rewards for being within their target range and sticking with their testing regimen over time. They can use these points to purchase items in the games, unlock mini-games and customize their experience on Bayer’s New Web Community.
