Could a simple Finger-Prick replace blood draws for antiphospholipid patients?

NCT ID NCT07570511

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a finger-stick device (Coaguchek) can accurately measure blood thickness in people with antiphospholipid syndrome who take blood thinners. Currently, these patients need regular blood draws from a vein, which is inconvenient. The study will compare finger-stick results to standard lab tests in 150 adults to see if the simpler method is reliable enough for everyday use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that finger-stick INR tests are reliable for people with antiphospholipid syndrome, making blood monitoring easier and more convenient.

What could go wrong

This is an early observational study with no treatment being tested. It may find that finger-stick tests are not accurate enough, so current practice may not change.
