OneTouch® Ping™ is the intelligent glucose management system with one thing on its mind: working together to help you perform at your best.
Like other insulin pump systems, OneTouch® Ping™ frees you from multiple daily injections and gives you the ability to quickly and easily adjust your insulin based on your body’s immediate needs.
But unlike other systems, OneTouch Ping delivers the double whammy in terms of smarts. The pump is packed with unique capabilities that may be accessed both wirelessly (by using the meter-remote) and manually. And the meter-remote, with its full set of functions, is designed to make your life with diabetes easier and more discreet. In fact, you can even dose your insulin from it.

Add your reviewI am glad I chose the Ping. It is easy to use. I work in a very dusty environment and the Ping stands up to it very well
ProsEasy to use
ConsVery small, do not enven know it is there
Good technical support from Amimas.
Very convenient having meter and pump work together.
Wish they offered shorter tubing lengths
I have been wearing my insulin pump for a week now and it is AMAZING!!!! For 14 years I have had Type 1 Diabeties, I have always had a rollarcoaster for my blood sugars. Now with the pump in the past week I only went one time over 300 and that was my mistake. I no longer stay 400 all the time. I sometimes forget about wearing it because it is so light and you don't feel it. Being in high school you are always trying to stay out of the "wierd" group. With my insulin shots even though I was a cheerleader I was always looked at funny, now people don't mind stopping me in the halls to talk because they are not scared of my "disease."
ProsYou can live almost a perfectly normal life. You don't have to take 10 minutes to get checked and get a shot. Every three days the set is changed and actually the one touch ping does not hurt going in, unlike my old medtronic minimed did. You can personalize your pump with colors or skins. And it is so small people mistake it for a pager. It is so easy to imput your carbohydrates and blood sugars.

It matches your body's needs like no other pump system.
OneTouch Ping gives you the smallest basal increment available (0.025 U/hr) for more precise basal dosing. So if you need 0.025, 0.675 or 1.075 U/hr to perform at your best, we can deliver. Talk about fine-tuned control.
It has serious communication skills.
The OneTouch Ping meter-remote and the OneTouch Ping insulin pump communicate and share information wirelessly. In addition to testing blood glucose, the meter-remote can actually control pump functions. This means that the meter-remote can calculate a bolus, then tell the pump to deliver it. It also lets you view things like your basal rate without having to look at your pump.
It's smart about your carbs.
The meter-remote can store the nutritional values of 500 of your favorite foods, via CalorieKing®, for easy and accurate carb counting on the go. Using ezManager® Max software, you can even customize the database or enter your own favorites (like Mom’s chicken soup). That means you can rest assured you’re giving yourself the most precise insulin dose, wherever, whenever.
It's got beauty as well as brains.
The OneTouch Ping insulin pump has a flat panel color screen that uses the same screen technology as the latest televisions and digital cameras. The screen is also self-illuminating and high contrast for readability and viewable from a wide angle. Plus it comes in five brilliant colors.
Proven Waterproof.
The OneTouch Ping insulin pump is proven waterproof up to 12 feet for 24 hours so you can jump in the pool or get caught in the rain without worry.
