Comparison of the safety, effectiveness, and usability of swab robot vs. manual nasopharyngeal specimen collection
Background: Healthcare workers face a risk of infection during aerosol-generating procedures, such as nasal swabbing. Robot-assisted nasopharyngeal sampling aims to minimize this risk and reduce stress for healthcare providers. However, its effectiveness and safety require validation. Methods: We co...
