Genteel vacuum lancing technology expands into Mexico and makes painless glucose checks a possibility for Mexicans living with Diabetes


Genteel, the world’s only FDA-cleared standalone vacuum blood draw device, is pleased to jointly celebrate its 3-year anniversary collaboration with Alta Tecnologia Biomedica (Hospitecnica), a medical device company in Ciudad de Mexico, who has been distributing the Genteel line of painless diabetes products for those challenged by blood sugar testing.

In 2021, an estimated 14 million adults in Mexico are living with diabetes – a rise of 10% in the past two years. An additional 11 million adults in the country have Impaired Glucose tolerance (IGT), which places them at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Now there is hope with Genteel. Its technology offers:

  • Precise depth control so the lancet never touches the pain nerves
  • Vacuum to instantly and painlessly pull up the blood drop
  • Alternate site testing option so no more mandatory painful finger pricks

Hospitecnica takes pride in its one-on-one relationship with its customers. Maria Guinea, Hospitecnica’s operations manager, encourages anyone suffering from the challenges of diabetes to contact her on the benefits of Genteel’s technology. “We are always here to help,” she says, and will work with her customers to ensure complete satisfaction with the product.

Hospitecnica remains the exclusive distributor of all Genteel products in Mexico. They can be reached at http://www.hospitecnica.com.mx, Calle Liverpool 174, Colonia Juarez CP 06000, Ciudad de Mexico, +52 (55) 5688 5027
