Development
Adam,Rouilly is delighted to announce its latest product innovation, the GlucoHand® – Glucometer Simulator.
Diabetes affects some 415 million people globally and it is expected to affect one person in 10 by 2040, raising this international figure to 642 million. In the UK an estimated 4.5 million people live with diabetes. Effective diabetes management is now a growing part of those general skills which all clinicians must possess. Blood glucose monitoring remains key in managing diabetes. This model was designed by Nina Godson, Assistant Professor and Lead for Clinical Skills at Coventry University.
The GlucoHand® has been developed in recognition of this rising disease. It aids the understanding and teaching of blood sampling and the interpretation of glucose level data and its implications in patient treatment planning. The GlucoHand® also facilitates patient education, as approximately 700 people a day in the UK are diagnosed with diabetes.

All in One Solution for Blood Glucose Training
- The model features a simulated glucometer device which allows the tutor or trainer to pre-set a low, normal, high or completely randomised glucose reading
- Also includes a realistic adult sized hand, cast from life, with two refillable finger blood pads in the middle and ring fingers
- Blood samples from each of these finger tips may be drawn and measured using the supplied reusable simulated blood glucose test strips, which will produce a result on the simulated Glucometer which can then be interpreted by the student
Includes
- Simulated Glucometer Device
- Simulated hand on base with two refillable blood finger pads
- 20 reusable simulated blood glucose test strips
- Blood refill kit concentrate to make up 100 ml of artificial blood (finger tips use 2ml each)
- Water based lubricant
