Abstract:
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is one of the fastest growing disciplines of clinical laboratory medicine. It serves as a convenient tool for rapid clinical diagnosis. However, the increasing demand for POCT testing and the continuous expansion of the testing field has brought many new challenges to its quality management. This paper would introduce the problems existing in the clinical application of POCT, discuss the corresponding quality improvement suggestions and explore new thinkings for standardizing POCT management.
