CLSI POCT02 Abstract

Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute document POCT02-A—Implementation Guide of POCT01 for Health Care Providers; Approved Guideline identifies and describes the particular features that a POCT01-compliant device should ideally have. These features are divided into obligatory and desirable categories. Key terms are identified and the most frequent use cases are presented. The guideline thus gives the health care provider or end user a practical basis for establishing a list of features or questions to be addressed by the vendor of a compliant device. Where appropriate, it also indicates options that may be applicable. The guideline, at the same time, tries to be flexible in allowing for adaptation to specific cases and also in considering probable technological advances in the evolution of connectivity solutions. The use of this guideline should thus permit health care providers to acquire the device with a connectivity solution best suited to their needs and also to encourage the development of an acceptable industry-wide standard.
