Many would-be blood donors have complained about discomfort from the pinprick carried out before the pint of blood is taken; the pinprick is more painful than the insertion of a needle into a vein to remove the blood. The new device, based on a ring-shaped sensor, is called NBM-100. It calculates the level of hemoglobin by combining an optical reading with pressure on the finger.
The device, developed and manufactured by the company OrSense and Magen David Adom’s blood services, has been proven to produce very accurate results. NBM-100 received approval in January by the European drug authorities and is now in the process of undergoing United States Food and Drug Administration licensing.
