Research summary
MST are developing a new diagnostic assay and measurement device for PT/INR. The purpose of this study is to support the development of a new generation of point-of-care diagnostic devices that can substantially enhance clinicians’ and patients’ ability to diagnose, monitor and manage a range of acute and chronic health conditions. These devices have the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce the cost of care for large numbers of people.
Venous and capillary blood samples collected from participants will be used to develop new products and platforms for the measurement of PT/ INR.REC name
