What Does Point Of Care Mean?
Point of care“ testing (POCT), also known as bedside testing, involves any type of diagnostic test that isn’t done in the laboratory. More specifically, this type of testing is performed as close as possible to the patient, be it at their bedside or near them — hence the name “point of care”.
