Accu-Chek Aviva with test strips, lancet drum and lancing device (MultiClix)
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

The Accu-Chek MulitiClix is said to be the "proven least painful" lancing device available on the market. In its advertisements, Accu-Chek claims it avoids "painful re-sticking" and for the "MultiClix" lancing device, 90% of patients in its tests found it to be the least painful of lancing devices.
