Beschreibung
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adults aged 18 years or older.
- Current healthcare staff or staff volunteers.
- Already consented to use the routine dried blood spot (DBS) vitamin D service.
- Able and willing to provide all three sample types- routine DBS finger-prick sample, a Tasso+ upper-arm self-collected capillary sample, and a venous blood sample taken by a trained Trust phlebotomist.
- Able to give informed consent.
- Able to complete a short questionnaire in English.
Exclusion Criteria:
• Participants will not be able to take part if any of the following apply:
- Under 18 years of age
- Not a member of staff or staff volunteer
- Known difficulty with blood sampling, such as a history of fainting, severe needle phobia, or conditions that make venepuncture unsafe.
- Skin conditions or injuries on the upper arm that would prevent safe use of the Tasso+ device.
- Bleeding disorders or current use of anticoagulant medication that would make capillary or venous sampling unsafe.
- Inability to give informed consent, including difficulty understanding the study information.
- Inability to complete the short questionnaire in English, as this is needed to assess user experience.
