Theirs is ambulatory, i.e. for people to wear in their daily lives (mostly T1 and insulin-dependent T2). We're targeting a market that currently doesn't exist -- hospitalized patients, specifically people in critical care and people with diabetes on the general care floors. Similar terminology but very different markets!
Their latest AID (automated insulin delivery) system is killer, btw, some of the best results I've ever seen for ambulatory!
Ah ok. I have worked on medical devices in hospital environments i.e the recent Roche Glucometers similar to Cobas.

Yes, their medical devices are really good and also very interesting especially their pacemaker implants and also DBS implants for Parkinsons disease.
There was another fantastic device called VAD pumps by Thoratec for which I worked on a PoC. What a crazy tech that is. Thoratec got acquired by St. Jude and finally by Abbott.
