Find Out About Accu Check Glucometer

By: Frederic Haislip



It is important to get the test right from the first time and it is possible through this new glucometer, which makes every test strip count.

You only need to give a tiny drop of blood that is sucked out by the wide-mouth strip. Almost every person suffering from diabetes gets it right from the first time. What is more important, besides the fact that you do not need to retest, is that there are 150 automatic checks to identify and avoid wrong results.

The ACCU-CHECK Multiclix uses a pre-loaded six-lancet drum that prevents the need to use individual lancets. It also saves time, it is less painful than others and you are safer from accidental injuries that can occur if the lancet sticks to your fingers.

Blood for test can be taken from the fingertip, the palm, the forearm, the upper arm, the thigh or the calf.

It takes only 5 seconds to get the test results.

Every time you open a new blood sugar strip container, it is necessary to place a code plate in the machine, a very simple procedure.

Only 0.6 microliter of blood is necessary for a blood sample.

The Accu-Check Aviva glucometer is not difficult to use. It has a great design and rubber grips that are easy to hold.

The test results can be saved.

The glucometer has 500-value memory and it can show you 7, 14 and 30 days average values.

Soon, by using ACCU-CHEK Compass software or the Diabetes Assistant program, the online log, you will be able to download the necessary data directly to your computer.

Some characteristics for the glucometer are: 2.1 oz. weight including the battery, and its dimensions are 3.73 H x 2.03 W x 0.93 D.

Glucometers usually come with a lancet pen where you must put the lancet and this can lead to some accidents by sticking the lancet in your finger or somewhere else. It is not the case with this glucometer, as it has a six-drum lancet device.

Senior users can be comfortable with the glucometer, as it is easy to use.

This new system is developed and manufactured by Roche Labs and it helps a lot to perform glucose testing in an easy and simply way.

Another great feature of the Aviva glucometer is that it has an alternative site cap and you can use it anywhere you want.
