About your test appointment

Taking part in Our Future Health involves attending an appointment where two venepuncture blood draws will be conducted and some physical health measurements are taken.

You will have been invited to take part in your Our Future Health test appointment, we call this a 'wet run'. By taking part in a test appointment or wet run, you are not a real participant for the Our Future Health research programme. Our Future Health are running test appointments because they would like to check the process of the appointment from start to finish.

Our Future Health have developed the appointment with a large team including the community pharmacy we are partnering with, medical experts, experts in research appointments and many others who have helped to make the experience easy and pleasant.

The test appointment will be with a member of staff who is newly trained in how to take a blood sample from the community pharmacy.

The appointment testing includes checking that consent is in place, taking some physical measurements from you, and having blood taken. Any data and samples generated as part of the test appointment will not be used for any purpose other than for testing the appointment process. Anything collected will be destroyed at the end of the appointment testing process.

Your test appointment should last between 20-30 minutes.

At the test appointment, you may have the following measurements taken and logged against a fictitious profile:

  • 2 blood pressure measurements
  • Heart rate readings
  • Height measurement
  • Weight measurement
  • Waist circumference measurement
  • A finger prick cholesterol test
  • Two venepuncture blood draws (2 blood draws each collecting a 6ml sample)
