What Is POCT
Definition (s)
“Diagnostic testing at or near the site of patient care.”
“POCT is the testing of patient samples outside the hospital laboratory, in clinical areas near to the patient, usually by staff who are not trained and registered healthcare scientists.
![Page 3: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Goals of POCT
Goals
• improve medical outcomes
• Improve economic outcomes
• decrease therapeutic turnaround time (TTAT)
(TTAT = time from test request to patient treatment)

Ancient POCT
1500 B.C. Egypt
The pharaoh’s doctor noticed accumulation of ants around the urine of some people rather than others
![Page 6: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Ancient POCT
Thomas Willis 1621- 1675
“..but in our age, given to good fellowship and guzzling down chiefly of unallayed wine, we meet with examples of this disease wherefore the urine of the sick is so wonderfully sweet, or hath a honey taste…”
![Page 7: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Diagnostic testing in the pre -1900s
Chemical analysis have been carried out close to the patient, i.e., at the bedside, or more commonly, in specially designated ward side-rooms since they were first introduced for diagnostic purposes during the early 19th century at Guy’s Hospital
Lancet i:956, 1883
![Page 8: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The move from point of care to labs • Need for better analytical sensitivity• Need for improved specificity• Better turn around times• Need for operator independent testing• Increase in workload• Technological advances with introduction of better
analytical methods
![Page 9: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The move from labs to point of care
• 1950s - Urine test strips in the sense used today were first made on industrial scale and offered commercially.
• 1964 - The company Boehringer Mannheim, today a top leader on the world market under the name of Roche, launched its first Combur test strips (urine).
• 1965 Ames developed and introduced in a product called Dextrostix®
![Page 10: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The move from point of care to labs
• 1970 - The first blood glucose meter.. The same Dextrostix were used and the concept was that you play a beam of light on that blue color and the darker the blue the less light would be reflected.
Ames Reflectance Meter
![Page 11: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The move from labs to point of care
• 1990 -- MediSense, now owned by Abbott Laboratories, introduced electro-chemical readings or biosensors, which were supposed to make glucometers more accurate. This is done by turning biochemical reactions into electrical signals.

So -back to Point of Care Testing
![Page 13: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

![Page 14: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Rothesay Victoria Hospital• Cowal Community Hospital• Larkfield Unit • Ravenscraig Hospital
Geographical areas covered by POCT service
![Page 15: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Analytes performed by POCT analysers that we manage
• Glucose• Blood Gases• Lactate• Co-oximetery• Haemoglobin A1c
![Page 16: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
POCT analysers managed
• Abbott Precision Xceed Pro Glucose Meters connected via Precision WEB
• Abbott Precision Optimum Xceed Glucose Meters• IL Gem Blood Gas analyser connected via
GemWeb• Siemens DCA 2000 Haemoglobin A1c Analyser • Menarini HA-8160 Haemoglobin A1c Analyser
![Page 17: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Glucose Meters in use
• Abbott Precision Xceed Pro - connected • Precision Optimum Xceed - non -connected
• As with most glucose POCT meters both meters have limitations and should not be used in the following;– Severe dehydration– Severe hypotensive or in shock– In a hyperglycaemic-hyperosmolar state e.g. DKA
![Page 18: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Blood Gases, pH, Lactate & Co-oximetery
• Arterial blood gases (ABGs) provide the following information:– Oxygenation– Adequacy of ventilation– Acid-base levels
• Blood pH• Lactate • Co-oximetery • Blood Gases, Lactate & Co-oximetery are analysed on
ILGem 4000 blood gas analysers. 4 ILGEM blood gas analysers replaced 3 Roche AVL and 1 Roche OMNIS blood gas analysers in March 2009
![Page 19: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
IL gems
• The Il Gems have been a popular replacement with both users and laboratory staff due to:
• Self-contained• Maintenance-free• iQM, IL's Intelligent Quality Management system,
automates quality control.• GEMweb® Plus, IL's remote management
software, enables access to any networked analyzer to see results, monitor performance and assure standard configurations
![Page 20: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
DCA 2000 Haemoglobin A1c
The Siemens DCA 2000 is a good point of care analyser• Easily used non-laboratory operators• Light weight small footprint portable• Requires no operator interpretation of chromatogram• No pre dilution if using finger prick• Monoclonal antibody method for HbA1c –no
interference from abnormal haemoglobins• Correlation study shows 99% agreement with the
HPLC method.• No connectivity –results have to be manually entered
on LIMS
![Page 21: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Menarini HA-8160
• The Menarini HA-8160 in contrast • Not easily used by non –laboratory operators • Heavy bulky analyser requires to be transported
on a large trolley• Requires operator interpretation of chromatogram• Requires pre dilution of eluate if using finger prick• HPLC method for HbA1c –possible interference
from abnormal haemoglobins.• Connectivity –results transmitted to LIMS .
![Page 22: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Discussion
• Are the above POCT appropriate –• The above POCT are appropriate as they meet the TTAT
required for the sites where they are located. If the above testing was performed by laboratory based analysers the TTAT may not be met due to geographical locations of some wards and departments (and lack of pneumatic transport system).
• Finance – • Currently only the Siemens DCA 2000 is funded outwith the
Diagnostic’s budget (funded by Woman’s and Children’s directorate), with consumables, IQC and EQA managed by Biochemistry. POCT tend to be more expensive per test in comparison to laboratory based analysers therefore there is a reluctance to provide POCT where the laboratory can meet the TTAT examples of this are the recent decisions to withdraw Troponin testing as a POCT and also to assay B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in the laboratory rather than as a POCT.
![Page 23: Charlie Houston point of care past,present & future](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/5568d663d8b42a173c8b518f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Future developments
• Abbott Diabetes Care have launched a blood Ketones strip for the Glucose meters that are currently used ,there is the possibility of replacing Urine Ketone testing with Blood Ketone testing as a POCT (4)
• Precision web is not interfaced with the laboratory information management software LIMS (iSOFT APEX). It is proposed that Precision web will be interfaced to LIMS (5)
• GEMweb® Plus is not interfaced with LIMS .It is proposed that GEMweb® Plus will interfaced to LIMS.
• Review the use of the Menarini HA-8160 for adult diabetic clinic.
• An audit of all POCT within the IRH catchment area is required in order to assess if regulatory matters are being complied with (for example MHRA, CPA ).
