The Blood Glucose Vessel Comparison Model is an essential tool for doctors to explain blood glucose levels to patients. Also perfect for better understanding the meaning of blood sugar levels and A1C levels(average blood sugar level over the past 3 months).
Features:
- This vascular model illustrates blood flow high blood glucose(hyperglycemia) and normal blood glucose(normoglycemia) conditions.
- In this comparative model, it's clear that the blood flow velocity is slower under hyperglycemia compared to normoglycemic. Hyperglycemia occurs when there is insulin in the body or when insulin cannot be properly utilized.
- Made of quality and eco-friendly material: The blood vessel model serves as a useful tool in any classroom or doctor's office.
Specifications:
- Size: 2.7inch x 5.6inch
- Net Weight: 131g
- Material: ABS and glass

FAQs
What is hyperglycemia?
Hyperglycemia, or High blood glucose occurs when there is too much sugar in the blood. This wound happen if there is too little insulin (the hormone that delivers glucose to the blood) in the body, or if the body is unable to use insulin properly. This condition is usually associated with diabetes.
What causes hyperglycemia?
There are many reasons for high blood glucose:
- If you have type 1 diabetes, you may not be giving yourself enough insulin.
- If you have type 2 diabetes, you may have enough insulin in your body, but the insulin is not working as well as it should.
- You eat more or exercise less than planned.
- You are stressed by an illness such as a cold or flu.
- Other stresses such as family conflicts, school or dating problems.
- You may be experiencing the dawn phenomenon (a surge of hormones around 4:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. each morning).
If you have hyperglycemia and it goes untreated for a long time, it can damage your nerves, blood vessels, tissues, and organs. Damage to blood vessels increases the risk of heart attack and stroke, and damage to nerves can lead to damage to the eyes, kidneys, and wounds that don't heal.
