Accu-chek
Accu-chek is the brand of blood sugar-testing devices manufactured by Roche Diagnostics, largely for the diabetic market. Kits consist of an electronic monitor which measures blood-sugar via inserted one-time-use "strips" and a "fingerstick" device which fires a sharp needle marginally through the empidermis of the finger in order to allow a small amount of blood to be squeezed onto the strip in the monitor.
