摘要
POCT provides the opportunity to significantly improve the overall quality of blood testing in an organization. The design of the product, the redesign of the testing process and the tools used to manage a completely distributed testing process, are key to the quality implementation of POCT. Both theoretical considerations and practical outcomes are discussed in this paper, using the i-STAT(R) System as an example of a POCT system.
