Evaluation of Tasso+ Capillary Blood Self-Collection for Clinical Diagnostic Assessment of Various Biomarkers
American Research Labs
Summary
This study aims to assess the effectiveness and reliability of the Tasso+ capillary blood self-collection device in the clinical diagnostic assessment of various biomarkers. The study will collect blood specimens using both the Tasso+ self-collection device and traditional venipuncture. The biomarker analysis results from both specimen types will be compared for correlation.
Description
A kit containing all required supplies for traditional blood collection as well as Tasso+ self-collection kits for blood will be provided to the study sites. The kit will also include any additional supplies necessary for the collection process. The complete kit will be shipped to the sites as a single unit. 1. Research staff will approach subjects to determine their interest in participating in this study that involves both traditional venipuncture and Tasso+ blood self-collection procedures. If a subject is willing, a qualified study team member will obtain their agreement, conduct the info…

Interventions
- OtherTraditional Venipuncture
Traditional blood collection is performed and the necessary amount of blood is collected into the collection tubes (either SST or Lithium Heparin tubes based on the biomarker being tested).
- DeviceTasso+
The Tasso+ is the blood self-collection device used in the study and this device enables the collection of microliter capillary whole blood samples into compatible reservoirs. In this study, the reservoirs utilized include either SST or Lithium Heparin microtainers based on the biomarker being tested.
