Design of a Wireless EEG System for Point-of-Care Applications [PDF]
2013 39th Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference, 2013 This study aims to develop a wireless EEG system to provide critical point-of-care information about brain electrical activity. A novel dry electrode, which can be installed rapidly, is used to acquire EEG from the scalp. A wireless data link between the electrode and a data port (i.e., a smartphone) is established based on the Bluetooth technology.

A Handheld Point-of-Care Genomic Diagnostic System
PLoS ONE, 2013 The rapid detection and identification of infectious disease pathogens is a critical need for healthcare in both developed and developing countries. As we gain more insight into the genomic basis of pathogen infectivity and drug resistance, point-of-care nucleic acid testing will likely become an important tool for global health.

Point-of-care biosensor systems for cancer diagnostics/prognostics [PDF]
Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 2006 With the growing number of fatalities resulting from the 100 or so cancer-related diseases, new enabling tools are required to provide extensive molecular profiles of patients to guide the clinician in making viable diagnosis and prognosis. Unfortunately with cancer-related diseases, there is not one molecular marker that can provide sufficient ...

Point-of-Care Ultrasound and the Rapid Response System
Global Heart, 2013 Over the years, the use of ultrasound has moved solely from the domain of the radiologist to that of the intensivist and emergentologist for use in acute care settings. By virtue of its ease of use and rapid learning curve to proficiency, we are now seeing an increased desire by internists to learn the modality and apply it at the patient's bedside ...
