Chronic disease is the defining health crisis of our time and is predicted to rise at a growth rate of 100% by 2050. For those affected by a chronic disease, their medical needs remain unmet with sufferers reporting high levels of pain, discomfort, and an unnecessarily poor quality of life.

Indigo is developing a single sensor that is designed to measure a large number of metabolites. The small CMM^® sensor is implanted just under the skin and continuously measures metabolites in the body delivering best-in-class data to aid the management of chronic diseases.

The Indigo receiver displays trends, values, and warnings in real-time on the user’s smartphone or any other connected device via the Indigo app. Users will be able to share their data with others, and for further analysis.

The inconspicuous Indigo CMM^® sensor is being developed initially for diabetes management through continuous glucose, ketone, and lactate monitoring. Beyond diabetes, the CMM^® has broad applicability due to the wide spectrum of metabolites it can monitor. Further opportunities include the management of chronic kidney disease as well as oncology, cardiovascular disease and athletic performance.
