Blood collection device for diagnosing HIV
More than 90 percent of HIV infections in children result from mother-to-child transmission. Today, thanks to proper treatment and follow-up during pregnancy, the transmission of the virus from mother to child can be prevented.
Many African women do not have access to follow-up and medical care for economic and geographical reasons.
The device I developed is a mechanical, disposable device for collecting blood independently at home, designed to count viral load and CD4. Decryption is performed by photographing the blood surfaces.
