Subject: ED POC testing
Dear all,
We've recently been approached by our ED department who are wanting general chemistry, haematology and coagulation point of care testing, with a view to reduce turn around times.
It has raised a number of concerns in the lab and I just wondered if anyone has a similar set up or request from their ED department and would be happy to share their experience/thoughts.
Many thanks,
Aimée
