First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed study tested a small device called Tasso+™ that collects blood from the upper arm, aiming to make blood draws easier for clinical trials and pandemic monitoring. About 200 healthy adults used the device, and researchers checked if the blood samples were good enough for lab tests. The goal was to see if this device could work outside of hospitals, so people could participate in studies from home.
