This study proposes the collection of interstitial fluid (ISF) from participants using a microneedle patch. ISF is a natural fluid found between your cells that can inform us on your bodily readings and health. A microneedle patch is a safe alternative to standard fluid collection which uses tiny needles to collect the ISF. The patches consist of single-use, sterile (clean) microneedles created from biocompatible materials. These microneedles penetrate the outermost skin layer without causing significant discomfort, pain, or bleeding.
The A-Band is an investigational device and has not been approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
