Autonomous Blood Drawing Optimization and Performance Testing

"The Venipuncture Device is a pre-market medical device that fully automates the blood drawing procedure (also called phlebotomy or venipuncture). It automatically detects a vein using near-infrared and ultrasound imaging technology, robotically inserts a needle, automatically connects blood tubes and applies pressure to the puncture site.~During the ADOPT Study, the technology is further improved over time; for example features are released (such as: automated tourniquet). Initially, several manual steps are required to be performed by a device supervisor and operator. At the final stage of the ADOPT Study, Phase C2, the device has full functionality and only limited manual steps are required to be performed by a device supervisor."
