Accu-chek
Accu-Chek is the brand of blood sugar-testing devices (glucose meters) and Insulin Pumps (originally by Distronic) manufactured by Roche Diagnostics, largely for the diabetic market.
Accu-Chek Blood Glucose Monitor Kits contain: - a blood glucose meter which measures blood sugar via inserted one-time-use "strips" - a lancet device which fires a sharp needle marginally through the epidermis of the finger in order to allow a small amount of blood to be squeezed onto the strip in the monitor - a user manual - registration cards for the lifetime warranty
