Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy (OPAT) service provides antimicrobial therapy by parenteral infusion without hospitalization. Vancomycin is a widely used antibiotic in OPAT, however a drawback of its application in OPAT is the need for traditional blood sampling at a blood sampling facility for therapeutic drug monitoring. By developing a dried blood spot sampling method (i.e. a finger prick), enabling patients to collect their own sample at home, the costs of OPAT may be further reduced and patient satisfaction may be increased.
