Analysis of point-of-care testing researches in China based on CNKI database / 中华医院管理杂志

Objective:To identify current research hotspots, research trends and future trends of point-of-care testing(POCT) in China, by means of literature review.Methods:The " point-of-care testing" and " POCT" were used as the search terms, to retrieve in CNKI database the literature on point-of-care testing published during 2010-2019 in the method of subject retrieval. CiteSpace software was used to analyze and generate the research institutions and their cooperative networks, the keyword co-occurrence network, and the burst term analysis, for an analysis of the current researches in point-of-care testing in China.Results:A total of 588 literatures were retrieved, and 485 literatures were finalized as research samples, with exclusion of those obviously irrelevant. The research found that the point-of-care testing studies in China focused on portable blood glucose meters, quality control of POCT, comparison of POCT and biochemical analyzer results, and establishment of a POCT quality system. In terms of future research tend, the hotspots fell on " total quality management system of POCT" , " POCT in cardiovascular disease application" , " POCT in battlefield operation or emergency application" .Conclusions:Given the growing number of relevant documents on point-of-care testing, and the expanding scope of researches, regional research centers have yet to be formed.

Establishment and practice of a point-of-care testing management system in hospitals / 中华医院管理杂志

With the market-oriented application of new technologies and the development of various subjects in hospitals, more and more point-of-care test(POCT) devices appear in medical institutions, as an important method for rapid clinical acquisition of test results. As introduced by the authors, the hospital since 2017, established based on the hospital′s total quality management system, the POCT management committee, and built the hospital′s POCT quality management system. Thanks to its efforts, the hospital has fully standardized the POCT management from equipment procurement, test, maintenance, personnel training and examination, thus further ensuring medical quality.
