| Measure | Time frame |

| Main study parameters are: 1. Successfully acquired diffuse reflectance spectra obtained in subcutaneous fat surrounding the veins in the anterior forearm, and spectra obtained with the needle tip inside veins in the anterior forearm. 2. Recordings of positive/negative aspiration results for the locations where the diffuse reflectance spectra have been taken. 3. Confirmation images by ultrasound, at the locations where the diffuse reflectance spectra have been collected. 4. Estimates of the diameters of the punctured veins, based on information from ultrasound imaging. 5. Percentages correctly identified positive and negative vessel punctures, where the identification is provided by an observer who only has access to the diffuse reflectance spectra, and is blinded to all other aspects of the procedures. | — |
