Click the adjacent interactive image, using the corner arrows to open it fullscreen, to learn more about the contents of the GTT@home test kit.
Patients will receive their test kit in the post ahead of their scheduled test date.
The World's First and Only Home OGTT Test Device
The GTT@home test device has been designed to remove any potential complexity associated with the patient completing a home test.
The system contains two glucose test sensors that accurately measure glucose in capillary samples taken on a fasting and two-hour basis. An onboard timer ensures the interval between the two tests is correctly observed.
GTT@home analyses the blood samples instantly to mitigate the risk of sample degradation that frequently occurs within the conventional in-clinic OGTT workflow to give the most precise test data possible.
Built-in NFC functionality enables patients to send their test data to their care team immediately upon completion of the test using the GTT@home mobile application.

Accelerating Diabetes Detection
The earlier diabetes is detected, the greater the opportunities for intervention.
With GTT@home, patients can take advantage of the Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality built into the test device to send their test data to their care team right away.
They simply download the GTT@home mobile application and scan the snap-off fob attached to the test device. Their test data is then instantly transmitted for processing as effortlessly as making a contactless payment.
Alternatively, a prepaid envelope is included within the test kit for a postal return of the snap-off fob.
