Abstract

Point-of-Care Test (POCT) is considered as the diagnostic test which is administrated in the outside of the central laboratory ator near the patient location. Therefore, it can be stated that the use of POCT devices in the department of emergency represents a significant benefit to the management of the patient. It can be able to give proper governance to credible policy, safe practice, and effective process performance by the healthcare clinics. The major contribution of the POCT is it can give a huge improvement over the test result in the context of turnaround time. Here this research paper considers the process of development framework of POCT in the emergency department (ED). Moreover, the challenges faced by the clinical staff during the usage of previous POCT and the implementation process are also discussed to give a clear clarification about the essentiality of the developed framework of POCT.
