IntroductionContaining COVID-19 requires broad-scale testing. However, sample collection qualified personnel and protective equipment may cause transmission. We assessed the sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2-rtPCR applying three self-sampling techniques as compared to professionally collected oro-nasopharyngeal samples (cOP/NP).MethodsFrom 62 outpatients, we obtained: (i) multi-swab, MS; (ii) saliva sponge combined with nasal vestibula, SN; (iii) gargled water, GW; (iv) cOP/NP (standard). ct-values...

Background Given the limitations in access and license status of commercially developed automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, open-source AID systems are becoming increasingly popular among people with diabetes, including children adolescents. Objective This study aimed to investigate lived experiences physical emotional health implications their caregivers following initiation AID, perceived challenges, sources support, which have not been explored existing literature. Methods Data were...

Although commercially developed automated insulin delivery (AID) systems have recently been approved and become available in a limited number of countries, they are not universally available, accessible, or affordable. Therefore, open-source AID systems, cocreated by an online community people with diabetes their families behind the hashtag #WeAreNotWaiting, increasingly popular. This study focused on examining lived experiences, physical emotional health implications following initiation...

Summary/Abstract Introduction Containment of the COVID-19 pandemic requires broad-scale testing. Laboratory capacities for real-time-PCR were increased, and are complemented by Ag-tests. However, sample-collection still qualified personnel protective equipement, may produce transmission to others during conduct travel, is perceived uncomfortable. We tested sensitivity three simplified self-sampling techniques compared professional-collected combined oro-nasopharyngeal samples (cOP/NP)....
