Dear Fran

We are in the process of implementing Nova meters for POCT lactate measurement as part of the sepsis screening program in our organisation. We are planning to present comparison study with the lab in the next Euromedlab 2019. If you need any further info you may contact me.

Best wishes

Dear All,

Could I collect your thoughts on the follow:

Does anyone not allow GPs to request B12 and Folate due to stability problems? Secondly, do labs allow these to be added on?

Is anyone using a standalone POCT instrument for lactate measurement in their sepsis pathway?

Would appreciate thoughts on the above and happy to collate responses for anyone interested.

Many thanks,

Fran
