Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, it is considered that there are hygiene problems with adhesive labels, as in practice it may be difficult to avoid the accumulation of dirt on the adhesive labels, especially on the edges and / or on the adhesive sides of the adhesive labels in the case of partial debonding of the adhesive labels superior
Dirt can lead to cross-contamination, which can endanger individuals and patients, especially since many sites where POCT instruments are used are especially exposed to pathogens such as multi-drug resistant bacteria

specific Embodiment

[0108] According to some specific embodiments, some POCT instruments 1 are desktop devices connectable to the system control unit 90 via a wired connection, and some POCT instruments 1 are handheld devices connectable to the system control unit 90 via a wireless connection.

[0109]According to some embodiments, the system control unit 90 and the POCT instrument 1 each comprise a wireless communication unit 91, for example as part of a communication network. The wireless communication unit 91 may allow the use of wireless signals to change what is displayed on the auxiliary display 5 of the POCT instrument 1. Such wireless communication unit 91 may include, for example, a Wi-Fi module, a digital cellular network module, an RFID module, a Bluetooth module and / or an infrared module. As shown in FIG. 9 , the system control unit 90 may comprise a centralized unit (eg, a server and / or a data management system) that, according to some embodiments, may be remotely connected to the PO...

Abstract

A point of care testing (POCT) instrument (1) for analyzing biological samples and a POCT system (10) comprising a plurality of such POCT instruments (1) are proposed. The POCT instrument (1) comprises a housing (2), a measurement unit (3) designed for collecting data indicative of at least one biological parameter of a biological sample, a main display (4), and an auxiliary display (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a point-of-care testing (hereinafter "POCT") instrument and a POCT system including such a POCT instrument. Background technique [0002] POCT has a major impact on medical decision-making, as it can provide physicians with decisive information and thus plays a vital role in public health care. POCT is primarily performed by nurses or medical personnel trained to operate POCT equipment available in patient care settings such as hospitals, emergency departments, intensive care units, primary care facilities, medical centers, patient homes , doctor's office, pharmacy, or emergency room. [0003] A site's POCT system often includes a large number of POCT instruments, and in many cases, said personnel apply adhesive labels to the POCT instruments for organizational purposes, such as to indicate the staff member or unit to which the corresponding POCT instrument has been assigned. [0004] However, it is considered that th...
