October 26, 2021Point-of-care testing (POCT) technology continues to advance at a fast pace, making it easier to shrink complex testing platforms into point-of-care (POC) devices. By testing at a molecular level, the accuracy of the results far surpasses previous POCT methodologies.
July 26, 2021POCT is gaining popularity in scenarios where rapid turnaround time outweighs testing limitations. As POCT programs grow, effective oversight is best achieved by understanding end users’ perspectives and culturing a spirit of teamwork.
January 14, 2021Rapid POCT is being used to help address the COVID-19 testing backlog and speed turnaround times. Although the lesser sensitivity and specificity of POCT is acknowledged as an issue, its rapid turnaround time is a worthwhile trade-off in patient scenarios where speed is of the essence. Laboratory professionals are instrumental in ensuring the proper implementation and performance of POCT.
