Opportunities and challenges of point-of-care testing in clinical application

即时检测(POCT)也称近患检测,是指在患者附近或其所在地进行的、其结果可能导致患者的处置发生改变的检测。随着生物标志物和传感器技术的最新进展,越来越多的临床诊断性实验可以实现近患检测,是真正意义上的POCT。本文主要介绍了POCT临床应用的优势与不足,比较了不同国家地区POCT质量管理的方法策略和关注要点,分析了信息化在POCT质量管理中的作用,为规范POCT行业管理提供思路。

Point-of-care testing is also called near-patient testing that is performed near or at the site of a patient with the result leading to possible change in the care of the patient. With the rapid development of sensor technology and new biomarkers, a great of diagnostic tests are transformed into POCT products and serve for doctors. This article will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of POCT in clinical application, compare core issues of POCT with different countries abroad in quality management, analyze the role of informatization of POCT and explore new clues of standardized POCT management.
