On the Slow Diffusion of Point-of-Care Systems in Therapeutic Drug Monitoring. [PDF]
Recent advancements in point-of-care (PoC) technologies show great transformative promises for personalized preventative and predictive medicine. However, fields like therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), that first allowed for personalized treatment of patients' disease, still lag behind in the widespread application of PoC devices for monitoring of ...

Hemoglobin Point-of-Care Testing: The HemoCue System [PDF]
Besides the use of traditional laboratory resources, the diagnosis of anemia can also be accomplished by assessing hemoglobin (Hb) concentration with point-of-care testing (POCT) devices such as the HemoCue test systems. In several situations, these devices might suitably replace traditional laboratory testing, including several areas of health care ...

Paper-Based Systems for Point-of-Care Biosensing [PDF]
Paper-based systems have been widely investigated for developing point-of-care devices because of their simplicity, affordability, and ease of use. Recent advances have resulted in paper systems that have progressed beyond the historical "single-strip" format and allow for a larger range of functions. This review provides a summary of the advances that
