The Glycemia Reduction Approaches in Diabetes: A Comparative Effectiveness Study (GRADE Study) Capillary Blood Collection: A Pilot Study

This pilot study is planned to validate the comparability of HbA1c results obtained from
whole blood collection via venous phlebotomy versus a capillary collection of whole blood.
The participant will self-collect capillary blood into HbA1c prep vials containing a buffer;
these prep vials will be sent to the CBL at ambient temperature via US Postal System (USPS)
mail. The feasibility of self-collection of these capillary samples by GRADE participants
will also be evaluated.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Current GRADE participant with a scheduled follow-up visit

Exclusion Criteria:

- GRADE participants attending first quarterly (Month 3) visit or an annual visit
