Electronic Textiles for Wearable Point-of-Care Systems
Chemical Reviews, 2021Traditional public health systems are suffering from limited, delayed, and inefficient medical services, especially when confronted with the pandemic and the aging population. Fusing traditional textiles with diagnostic, therapeutic, and protective medical devices can unlock electronic textiles (e-textiles) as point-of-care platform technologies on the

Point-of-Care Diagnostic Systems
2020As medical treatment and diagnostics have moved forward in leaps and bounds during the past century, both life expectancy and quality of life have also been on the rise. However, this is only true for the developed world, where modern medical facilities are easily accessible and affordable to most.

Integrating Pharmacokinetics into Point-of-Care Information Systems
Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 1996Computer-based patient care information systems (PCIS) have emerged as an integral component of healthcare organisations. Currently, 4 models of PCIS exist: the centralised model, the hub-and-spoke model, the network model, and the distributed model. The centralised model has the advantage of a central patient database; however, a major disadvantage of

PDA based Point-of-care Personal Diabetes Management System
2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2004Diabetes is an incurable chronic disease with the prevalence high in developed countries. The number of patients in Korea is also on a steady increase. Patients have to self-manage their blood glucose level by daily test and insulin injection. Therefore, it is very important to assist them in self-management procedure.

Towards a point-of-care diagnostic system
Proceedings of the 5th ACM workshop on Networked systems for developing regions, 2011Many of the diagnostic tests administered in well-funded clinical laboratories are inappropriate for point-of-care testing in low-resource environments. As a result, inexpensive, portable immunoassay tests have been developed to facilitate the rapid diagnosis of many diseases common to developing countries.

Nursing Management (Springhouse), 1997
Point of care testing is changing for the better the way we practice medicine. Whether it is an anesthesiologist doing a blood gas in the operating room, a nurse measuring serum glucose in the home or on the unit, or an intensive care nurse testing by the bedside before calling an intensivist, newer instrumentation provides for a limited number of ...

Reconfigurable Point-of-Care Systems Designed with Interoperability Standards
The 26th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005Interoperability standards, if properly applied to medical system design, have the potential to decrease the cost of point-of-care monitoring systems while better matching systems to patient needs. This paper presents a brief editorial overview of future monitoring environments, followed by a short listing of smart-home and wearable-device efforts ...
