Abstract:
Point-of-care testing (POCT) refers to pathology testing performed in a clinical setting at the time of patient consultation, generating a rapid test result that enables informed and timely clinical action to be taken on patient care. It offers patients greater convenience and access to health services and helps to improve clinical outcomes. POCT also provides innovative solutions for the detection and management of chronic, acute and infectious diseases, in settings including family practices, Indigenous medical services, community health facilities, rural and remote areas and in developing c

During extracorporeal support or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) blood is diverted from the patient to an artificial lung for gas exchange, then returned into the patient’s circulation once arterialized. While a low-blood-flow bypass can remove comparatively high amounts of CO2, oxygenation is limited by venous haemoglobin saturation and requires high flows. Several technical improvements led to a profound change in the safety and applicability of ECMO in recent years, even permitting the transfer of patients undergoing ECMO.
