PCSIG Patient Advisory Group   The PCSIG held its first Patient Advisory Group event on Thursday 15th August, attended by 7 patients and caregivers from across Europe and North America. The positive, honest, informative and uplifting conversation covered experiences of collecting blood samples, benefits and challenges associated with patient centric sampling, and suggestions as to how we might progress with implementing these approaches in the future and how this group might be involved. We learned a huge amount and are now busy compiling the notes and actions, which will be shared with our community soon and will form the basis of future activities.   We would very much like to thank all of the participants who shared their experiences so openly and honestly. We also extend a big thank you to Natalie Swiderska and Jenny Royle of MediPaCe for organising this stand out event. We could not have done this without you :-) #patientcentricsampling #patientadvisorygroup #bloodsampling

Thank-you Donald Chace for sharing this with us.

Thank-you to the organisers, facilitators, scribes and attendees for making this such a productive event.

If you can help, please respond in the comments, message me, or email [email protected] "I am seeking a regulatory consultant who can guide us through the evolving EU IVDR and UK MHRA regulations for IVD devices to be use by a layperson. Both regulatory frameworks have experienced numerous changes, posing challenges for market access with new technologies."
