Designed to support consistent blood drawing, the devices are expected to address the growing shortage of healthcare workers.

OLVG Lab director Anja Leyte said: “Vitestro’s technology will improve the standardisation and optimisation of the sampling procedure and it helps solve staff shortages in our blood-drawing department.

“But more importantly, the patients are also very positive. Our staff are really enthusiastic as well and can’t wait to start using this breakthrough technology in our healthcare.”

Since 2018, OLVG Lab has been engaged in the development of autonomous blood-drawing devices.
