The IFCC C-POCT supports the use of POCT outside of hospitals, but emphasizes the importance of managing the associated risks to ensure reliable test results and patient safety. Healthcare professionals, regulatory bodies, laboratories, and manufacturers should all be involved in education and oversight to ensure correct selection, analysis, troubleshooting, and interpretation of POC test results.
The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) Committee on Point-of-Care Testing (C-POCT) supports the use of point-of-care testing (POCT) outside of the hospital setting performed by healthcare professionals without formal laboratory education because of its numerous benefits. However, these benefits are associated with risks that must be managed, to ensure the provision of reliable test results and minimize harm to the patient. Healthcare professionals, local regulatory bodies, accredited laboratories as well as manufacturers should actively be engaged in education, oversight and advice to ensure that the healthcare professional selects the appropriate equipment and is able to analyze, troubleshoot and correctly interpret the point-of-care (POC) test results.
