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

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

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 ...

Compact point-of-care system for clinical diagnostics
Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2009Objective of the study is the simultaneous measurement of three sepsis relevant parameters using a novel point-of-care system. Investigated parameters are C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and procalcitonin (PCT). The format is a fluorescence and microarray-based sandwich immunoassay.

Biochip readout system for point-of-care applications
Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2009A new low cost biochip readout system based on total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) including microfluidics is presented. The system is suitable for point-of-care diagnostics employing disposable substrates made of polymer foils producible at very low costs. Results for the reader sensitivity and dynamic range in comparison to state of the art

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 ...

A miniaturised integrated biophotonic point-of-care genotyping system
Faraday Discuss., 2011This paper reports the development of a novel genotyping device specifically designed for point-of-care applications. As the results of the human genome project are applied to clinical practice there is an increasing requirement for simple to operate high-speed, potentially low-cost genotyping devices for use in the clinic.
