Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) announced today that it acquired AMF Medical, maker of the Sigi patch pump for insulin delivery.

Switzerland-based AMF Medical currently develops the Sigi patch pump and does not offer it commercially. The system received FDA breakthrough device designation just over one year ago.

AMF Medical designed Sigi as an ergonomic, rechargeable patch pump for reducing the burden of diabetes management. It uses pre-filled insulin cartridges and offers compatibility with automated insulin delivery technology.
