Our TDM Resource Bundle can help you easily adopt new specimen collection technologies in both the field and the lab. Whether you are a doctor looking to build a personalized remote therapeutic drug monitoring program of immunosuppressants for your patients, or a clinical researcher searching for TDM device sampling alternatives, look no further! When patients can self-manage blood collection at home and send their blood samples to the lab for testing, this helps them adhere to an appropriate drug regimen, while eliminating unnecessary and time-consuming travel to the clinic or blood draw center.
After getting a kidney transplant, patients must get frequent blood draws for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) to track blood concentration levels of immunosuppressive drugs,. Immunosuppressive therapy helps a patient's body accept the new organ and remain healthy, but maintaining the appropriate drug level requires many clinic visits for close monitoring by the care team. The 'Count On Me' kidney transplant program at the NHS' Nottingham Children's Hospital in the UK has made things easier for pediatric patients and their families by providing at-home blood collection kits to enable remote patient monitoring.
Being able to self-manage their blood sampling for TDM has improved the quality of life for patients and their families, saving them time, travel, and exposure to contagions.
We wanted an easier way for children and their families to get their blood tests done so they wouldn't have to travel so much to visit us. Having a kit that allows patients to do their blood draws at home is fantastic!"
– JJ Kim, MD, Nottingham Children's Hospital, NHS, UK
“We use the blood collection kit at home for our son, who is a kidney transplant recipient. The kit has easy instructions, a finger-prick tool & supplies to collect the samples. We use the included shipping envelopes to post samples to our son’s care provider. The kit saves us time and unnecessary trips to the clinic.”
– Mrs. Lego | Transplant Patient Parent, USA
"The Mitra® devices make sampling in the hospital diagnostics lab environment amenable to workflows used in those labs and accessible to lab staff. Importantly, the Mitra® devices also dramatically improve the sample process, in terms of logistics and costs, and make storage of the samples in the central lab easier, not dependent on a freezer. The costs associated with wet blood sample shipping and storage may have made such work [protein biomarker research / proteomics] prohibitively challenging in the past.”
– Dr. Stephen Pennington of University College Dublin
"VAMS technology allows convenient at-home monitoring and is minimally invasive. It also offers efficiencies in the clinical setting, as providers will have blood results in hand before meeting with the patient."
– Dr. Christophe Stove | Ghent University Hospital
“With Mitra® devices, collecting the blood sample requires only one minute, no more. There is no pain associated with the process, and no excess bleeding. It takes just a few more minutes to register the samples, to place them in an envelope, to put a stamp on it, and to drop it in the mailbox.”
– Dr. Bruno Journe, Specialist in Addictology
Safer, simpler, smarter, and more convenient.
With Mitra® devices, patients undergoing therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can collect a sample of blood at home, ship it to a lab for analysis, and consult virtually with their physician about their results. This makes TDM more convenient and encourages better compliance with tough drug regimens. To learn how Mitra microsampling enables smarter, simpler TDM of immunosuppressants, hormones, anti-depressants, and more download our bundle of groundbreaking case studies and research insights from leaders in clinical research and healthcare.

The Mitra Device is a single-use, non-sterile device used as a specimen collector and for the storage and transport of blood or other biological fluids. It is designed to be used by laboratory and healthcare professionals, or end-users as a container to collect and transport blood or other biological fluids. It is not specific to any clinical test, and is not for use in diagnostic procedures. Use of the Mitra Microsampler in Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) requires further processing including the establishment of performance characteristics and successful validation by the laboratory in a manner consistent with CLIA and/or other regulatory requirements.
The Mitra Microsampling Device is a FDA listed Class 1 exempt device, CE-IVD self-certified in the UK and EU, a Class I IVD in Australia, and registered with Health Canada. Neoteryx operates a Quality Management System (QMS) that is based on FDA good manufacturing practices, 21 CFR 820 regulations, and ISO-13485.
