Summary

This study is testing whether people with diabetes can collect their own blood at home (using a finger prick or a device on the upper arm) to check blood sugar, cholesterol, and thyroid levels. The results will be compared to standard blood draws done by a nurse in the clinic. The goal is to see if home collection is accurate, easy for patients, and cost-effective, potentially reducing the need for clinic visits.

Who is studied

Participants will be identified and approached during a routine diabetes clinic service run by Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust, based at Ashton Primary Care. This is a single site study. Consent, randomisation and a venous and a capillary self-collected sample will be collected at Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust. A second capillary sample will be self-collected by the participant in an outside the clinic setting and posted to the central laboratory. Participants will complete a questionnaire in the clinic as well as outside the clinic. The outside the clinic questionnaire will be posted back to the research team at Tameside General Hospital.
