Summary

This study tested a device that collects blood from the upper arm instead of a vein. 443 healthy adults and patients gave blood samples twice, two weeks apart. The goal was to see if the arm-collected samples gave the same lab results as standard blood draws. The study did not treat any disease, but aimed to improve how blood samples are collected.
