Mahidol University Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) Committee on Point-of-Care Testing (C-POCT) supports the use of point-of-care testing (POCT) outside of the hospital setting performed by healthcare professionals without formal laboratory education because of its numerous benefits. However, these benefits are associated with risks that must be managed, to ensure the provision of reliable test results and minimize harm to the patient. Healthcare professionals, local regulatory bodies, accredited laboratories as well as manufacturers should actively be engaged in education, oversight and advice to ensure that the healthcare professional selects the appropriate equipment and is able to analyze, troubleshoot and correctly interpret the point-of-care (POC) test results. 2023-07-07T18:01:08Z 2023-07-07T18:01:08Z 2023-01-01 Article Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (2023) 10.1515/cclm-2023-0502 14374331 14346621 37267483 2-s2.0-85162905820 https://repository.li.mahidol.ac.th/handle/123456789/87753 SCOPUS
