How to collect blood with the Tasso device
The Tasso device is a small, single-use kit that collects a blood sample from your upper arm without a needle in your vein. A gentle button-press opens tiny channels just under the skin, and the sample is drawn into a collection tube. It takes a few minutes at home - no clinic visit, no phlebotomist. Follow the four steps below to collect your sample correctly.
-
1Attach the collection tube
Take the green-capped collection tube from your kit and attach it to the base of the Tasso device until it clicks into place.
-
2Place on your shoulder and activate
Press the device firmly onto your clean, dry upper shoulder so it sticks, then press the red button to begin collection. Keep it in place and let the tube fill.
-
3Check the blood level, then remove the tube
Fill to at least 200 above the 400 mark - close to the top, but do not overfill. Once there is enough blood, remove the collection tube from the device.
-
4Close, shake and prepare for return
Close the green cap securely and shake the tube gently to mix. Complete the label, seal the tube inside the biohazard bag, and return it using the prepaid packaging in your kit. Don't forget to include your completed test requisition form in the box.
Posting window - Monday to Wednesday only. So your sample reaches the lab fresh, post it back on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. We cannot accept samples posted after 12pm on Wednesday - if you miss the window, hold your kit and post it the following Monday. Because of this window, Tasso results take around 7 working days longer than our other collection methods (about 17-21 working days in total).
Please note: the Tasso blood collection device may very rarely leave a permanent mark of approximately 2 mm on the shoulder. Although the mark is usually barely visible, please consider this before selecting this blood collection option.
