NCT ID NCT05977686
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at three fast, easy ways to check for anemia in pregnant women: a finger clip sensor, a finger-prick test, and a smartphone photo of the nailbed. Researchers want to see if these methods are as accurate as a standard blood draw. The goal is to make anemia testing more accessible and give immediate results, especially in low-resource settings. About 250 pregnant women will take part.
