Critical Care POC research

I would like feedback on the feasibility to perform capillary testing of a POC device in patients with sepsis and inflammatory diseases. The testing would require 4 separate finger sticks per patient and 2 separate operators. This is not a CLIA Waived product so experienced operators are acceptable. I'm looking for feedback on recruitment concerns.

We use Abbott i-STAT CG4+ cartridge with venous or arterial blood to test the Lactate. Only requires one operator with one stick.

What is the device you are considering? We use the iSTAT CG4+ cartridge for lactate. One stick and results in less than 4 minutes.
Are you looking at adults or children? Studies like this usually require extensive set up and paperwork filled out; patient approval forms etc.
