CardioRenal

Potassium measurement

CardioRenal and CHU Grenoble Alpes have announced an innovation that allows chronically ill patients to measure their blood potassium levels. The Tenor device enables patients to measure their blood potassium levels at home, in a similar manner to the way in which diabetic patients conduct blood sugar self-tests. Currently under development, Tenor is designed for patients with renal or cardiac insufficiency. Within minutes, it performs a precise potassium measurement.
