« Il est assez difficile de vous préoccuper de titrer votre insuline, sans avoir à vous inquiéter de savoir si votre marque d'insuline est compatible avec des outils de titrage automatique comme Insulia », a dit Pierre Leurent, PDG de Voluntis. « Nous sommes très heureux de rendre Insulia disponible à toutes les personnes souffrant de diabète de type 2, quelle que soit la marque de l'insuline qu'elles utilisent. »

Insulia® est un logiciel compagnon sur ordonnance réservé aux personnes atteintes de diabète de type 2 et à leurs équipes soignantes, qui les aide à obtenir la bonne dose, chaque jour. Insulia® associe une application mobile destinée au patient et un portail Web destiné aux professionnels de santé (HCP, de l'anglais « Health care practicioner »). L'application mobile apporte en temps réel des recommandations de dosage d'insuline basale et des messages de coaching éducatif, basés sur les valeurs de glycémie. Le portail Web HCP permet aux professionnels de santé de mettre en place des plans de traitement personnalisés, de prescrire l'application, puis de suivre à distance l'ensemble de leur population de patients. Dès qu'un professionnel de santé a délivré la prescription, Insulia peut être téléchargée sur l'App Store et sur Google Play.

Insulia est actuellement disponible pour les patients aux États-Unis, sur ordonnance de leur médecin. Voluntis a passé un contrat avec des plans commerciaux de santé, des gestionnaires de soins pharmacothérapeutiques et des payeurs gouvernementaux pour assurer une plus grande couverture de l'insuline, ainsi que la collaboration avec les systèmes de santé et les prestataires de soins, afin d'encourager l'utilisation du produit. Les professionnels de santé intéressés par l'utilisation d'Insulia dans le cadre de leur pratique peuvent enregistrer leur établissement sur www.insulia.com.

À propos d'Insulia®

Insulia® fournit automatiquement les doses recommandées d'insuline basale et des messages de coaching aux personnes souffrant de diabète de type 2, tout en permettant à l'équipe soignante de suivre les progrès à distance. Un professionnel de santé prescrit Insulia à travers son portail Web dédié et définit les règles du plan de traitement qui permettra d'ajuster le dosage de l'insuline basale aux besoins spécifiques de la personne.

Brick and mortar is here to stay, but only the smartest will survive

MONTREAL, Nov. 17, 2017

Montreal startup NewKnow is harnessing the power of mobile tech to help retailers elevate the in-store customer experience and turn the 'retail apocalypse' on its head.

MONTREAL, Nov. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - There's no doubt that online retail has altered the brick and mortar shopping experience in profound ways. But when it comes to reports of the 'retail apocalypse' that some naysayers predict, don't believe the hype. Why? Because the store still matters.

Two out of three consumers prefer to see products in-store and nine of ten dollars are still spent in physical retail. Far from being the demise of brick and mortar stores, e-commerce has simply hastened its evolution.

Creating stronger customer relationships and providing great in-store experiences is now more critical than ever. NewKnow, a Montreal startup, is helping savvy brands and retailers adapt and thrive in this new retail reality. The company's front-line staff training and communications app now makes it easy and affordable for retailers and brands to collaborate and effectively train their front-line workforce across their retail networks.

The NewKnow app helps sales staff make an impact with customers and sell better by delivering targeted training tools, modules and brand information to their smartphones. Brands and retailers can create, distribute, track, and communicate employee training across retail networks with ease. The days of staff rushing to the back room to check the computer or brushing off dusty binders for training or product information are (thankfully!) over. 

After decades of retail experience, NewKnow's co-founders Steven Gendron and Jaffray Hill have first hand understanding of the expense and challenge of on-boarding new employees and training teams on products, policies and procedures. "High turnover, disengaged employees, and infrequent and untrackable training were constant roadblocks for us. And it really bled through to the customer experience," says Gendron.

To overcome those hurdles, Gendron and Hill harnessed tech to empower retail's most valuable asset - front-line employees - with a better training and communication toolkit. "The trick to excelling in physical retail is by competing on the service experience, and blending digital and physical to deliver quality service and memorable in-store touch points," he adds.

NewKnow joins the likes of Lightspeed, Salesfloor, SweetIQ and Thirdshelf as the newest member of Montreal's retail tech scene. Expect a bright future for those taking advantage of tools like NewKnow to meet some of retail's biggest challenges.

New dollar backed currency USC -- combining stability with security and efficiency

BEIJING, Nov. 17, 2017

A much-needed app is entering the blockchain world to meet the demands of millions of people around the world. It offers cheaper, safer and real-time cross-border transfers.

BEIJING, Nov. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, blockchain company Coinfix revealed its US dollar backed digital currency called USC, based on smart contract issuance. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies, it has a 1:1 exchange for the dollar.

Coinfix is a project aimed at creating stable digital assets. It is based on the blockchain network of Achain, and is dedicated to helping global users solve the problem of convenient circulation of valuable assets.

"USC and other stable digital currencies enable faster, easier and cheaper cross-border transfers," said Kevin Yu, founder and CEO of USC. Based on the distribution experience of USC, Coinfix will consider issuing more digital currencies with a 1:1 exchange for legal tenders. The vision of Coinfix is to achieve free and convenient circulation of assets.

The problems of USDT and USC's strategic decentralization mechanism

USC uses Hong Kong's Linked Exchange Rate System as a reference and uses legal tender-U.S. dollar as a reserve. USC is issued in strict accordance with the amount of USD held in reserve on the blockchain network of Achain. USC holders can convert back to US dollars for the same rate. When USCis redeemed, the recovered currency is destroyed to keep the 1:1 ratio with reserves.

To ensure a digital currency has sufficient reserve, Kevin Yu, founder of USC, said that decentralization issuance mechanism is the key to ensure a currency is backed by accountability. USC is based on smart contract and it has three strategies to avoid the risk of over-issue.

First, USC uses decentralized issuance mechanism through smart contract. The USC issuance center does not have the right to directly issue new USC and every USC is issued only after obtaining approval from more than 50% of USC examining and approving clerks.

Second, USC account application and audit are also being modified through blockchain voting, to maximize the transparency and decentralization of blockchain, to prevent any risks of mischief.

Third, bank accounts of USC are audited by independent accounting firms. If it does not meet auditing standards, new USC cannot be issued. Accountability is thus bolstered by transparency.

Laying the foundation for a modernized global payment system

Kevin Yu, founder of USC, said: "Our innovative technology makes cross-border remittances as easy as sending e-mails." USC will enable users anywhere in the world to make instant transfers within 30 seconds. Transaction charges are as low as 0.01ACT, which is around USD 0.005.

Connecting with the Achain platform is a major advantage of USC. This smart contract network provides a transactional efficiency of 1000TPS (TPS: transaction capacity per second). Moreover, Achain-based USC will remain completely unaffected by the price of ACT, charging users a small amount of GAS, and costing less.

Digital currency prices have soared this year. While this may partly be the result of a price bubble, undoubtedly the underlying blockchain technology contains disruptive forces. There is a need for applications that not just leverage the strengths of blockchain technology, but also learn from the shortcomings of previous platforms. Industry experts said that blockchain will be used more widely for transaction settlement and clearing, and blockchain-based payment technologies represented by Coinfix may be a breakthrough.

Coinfix will set up a global super payment center in the future, offering solutions based on blockchain technology, enabling the secure and quick distribution of valuable assets (bitcoin, precious metals, crude oil, etc.). "Coinfix does not rule out the launch of several new types of digital currencies in the future, such as EUC (euro), CBTC (bitcoin), AUC (gold) and so on," Kevin Yu said.

Three Ways to Avoid a Trip to the ER This Thanksgiving

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Thanksgiving should be a time for family, friends and plenty of delicious food, not for preventable trips to the emergency room. These suggestions from the nation's emergency physicians could help you avoid an unexpected trip to the emergency room this holiday season. 

"This Thanksgiving, a few simple steps to avoid preventable injury or illness can go a long way toward making sure you safely enjoy the holiday," said Paul Kivela, MD, FACEP, president of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP). "It is important to take the time to enjoy this special time of year. But, if the need arises, emergency physicians treat patients 24-hours a day, even on holidays, and we will be there for you."

Follow food safety guidelines. For many people, the most important part of Thanksgiving is a big meal surrounded by friends and loved ones. Mishandling raw meat or other ingredients could transmit harmful bacteria or lead to some very unpleasant stomach pains.

Wash your hands thoroughly when handling uncooked meat and keep it separate from other foods. Be sure to sanitize any surface that touches raw food. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that oven temperatures should be no lower than 325 degrees.

If you have allergies and you did not cook the meal yourself, remember to ask about the ingredients and how food was prepared. And, don't forget to refrigerate all leftovers within 2 hours. Pace yourself when a big meal is involved, whether you are preparing, eating or cleaning up afterward. If your gathering includes alcoholic beverages, drink in moderation. And of course, do not drink and drive.

Take your time to avoid common injuries. It can be hard not to get caught up in the holiday hustle. Careful planning for meal preparation can help you make sure there is plenty of time to get the job done. Be careful, knife injuries from slicing food are some of the most common Thanksgiving mishaps. Many accidents occur when carving or cutting too quickly.

Accidents or fires can be caused by trying to do too many things at once, exposure to hot liquid or oil splashes. Lifting heavy pots or plates? Bend at the knees and avoid back injuries. Deep frying a turkey can be especially dangerous, especially for novice cooks. Never attempt to deep fry a frozen turkey, it should be completely thawed out first. And, frying a turkey should be done a safe distance away from any flammable structure. 

Exercise safely, don't overdo it. Participating in a traditional Thanksgiving sporting event? If a "Turkey Bowl" or other athletic activity is part of your celebration remember to stretch first and avoid overexertion. Avoid weather-related issues such as hypothermia or frostbite by dressing appropriately for the weather outside. The ER will likely see a spate of holiday-related sprains, muscle tears or other injuries. Especially for those who may not exercise regularly, one way to decrease the likelihood of injury is to play touch football rather than tackle.

Thanksgiving can also be a challenge for those coping with mental health issues. Whether it comes from the pressure to entertain, financial strain, family tension or other issues, stress runs high this time of year. It is important to recognize and treat the symptoms of anxiety, depression or other mental health disorders with professional help as needed. Better self-care can ward off things that may send you to the ER like panic attacks, complications from alcohol abuse or other emergencies.

"Distractions, multi-tasking and poor decisions make Thanksgiving one of the busier days in many emergency departments. If an emergency does occur, don't delay a trip to the ER, putting off care might seem convenient at the time but poses serious health risks," said Dr. Kivela.

ACEP is the national medical specialty society representing emergency medicine. ACEP is committed to advancing emergency care through continuing education, research and public education. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, ACEP has 53 chapters representing each state, as well as Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia. A Government Services Chapter represents emergency physicians employed by military branches and other government agencies.

Rohde & Schwarz Achieves Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Certification for Its R&S QPS200 Security Scanner

MUNICH and COLUMBIA, South Carolina, November 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The R&S QPS 200 from Rohde & Schwarz is the first new people screening system to be certified by the TSA for use at US and international aviation and other security checkpoints. 

Rohde & Schwarz, a world leader in manufacturing test and measurement, communications, and broadcast and media equipment, announced today that its R&S QPS200 millimeter wave technology has achieved TSA Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) detection certification. TSA certification validates that the R&S QPS200 meets TSA's stringent aviation security detection requirements.

The R&S QPS200 security scanner uses safe millimeter wave radio frequency technology to screen passengers automatically for concealed threats while protecting passengers' privacy. "We are pleased that the R&S QPS200 has achieved the milestone of TSA detection certification and look forward to building a partnership with TSA at US airports to deliver next generation security capabilities," said Scott Bausback, President and CEO of Rohde & Schwarz USA, Inc. "We are dedicated to providing airports, air carriers and passengers with high-performance, passenger-friendly security screening technology."

The R&S QPS200 is the first Rohde & Schwarz AIT system to achieve TSA detection certification and has achieved certification by the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) and is in use at airports across Europe. The millimeter wave technology is based on the company's many years of expertise in developing globally leading test and measurement equipment. The QPS system requires only a few milliseconds to scan passengers, which can speed checkpoint-screening operations and increase through-put. Privacy is protected by the use of a generic outline of a person to indicate to operators the location of an alarm. Scanning is easy as individuals simply stand in front of the technology with their arms held slightly away from the body and the system automatically detects potentially dangerous objects on the body. The QPS200 millimeter wave technology is safe and produces no more transmit power than a mobile phone.
