Proteus Swallowable Smart Pills FDA Approved to Measure Medication Adherence [IMG]http://cdn.medgadget.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/proteus-*****.png[/IMG] Proteus Digital Health won FDA approval for what the company calls “the only device with an FDA-sanctioned claim for measuring Medication adherence.” Proteus tech**logy, the development of which we’ve been covering for a number of years **w, uses tiny injestible sensors attached to drug tablets and a ***** that can detect when they’ve been swallowed. The ***** then uses its*built-in Bluetooth antenna to share when every pill was swallowed with the matching smartphone app, which in turn passes the readings to family, caretakers, and the patient’s physician.
