ESO POC COMPLETE TEST KITS

Point-of-care tests are simple medical tests that can be performed at the bedside. Rapid diagnostic tests such as Chlamydia antigen detection tests rely on a state of the art in immunology that did not exist until recent decades. Thus, over decades, testing continues to move toward the point of care more than it formerly had been. A recent survey in five countries (Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK and the US) indicates that general practitioners / family doctors would like to use more POCTs.
