摘要
The approach to managing a point-of-care testing (POCT) program has evolved over recent years. Although many of the essential features of early POCT management programs remain intact, contemporary challenges including expansion of the test menu, changing regulatory requirements, and the development of more sophisticated data management connectivity require ongoing adaptation of POCT management programs. Despite improvements in test quality and regulatory compliance, significant challenges for the management of POCT will continue for the foreseeable future.
