Point of Care Personnel
To my NYS friends:
Does anyone hire POC staff with their BS in chemistry/biology and not credentialed as laboratory technologists. If so, what POC activities can they perform? What can't they perform?
We are struggling to hire POC technologists at my hospital, and as such are looking for solutions outside of the traditional box.
Thank you all in advance!

POC rapid CMV testing
Hello all,
Does anyone know if there are any POC test platforms for CMV? Our hospital would like to screen infants. Any information would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Said: As a Point of Care sales specialist, the only option I've found it the FastPack. It isn't as small as the i-STAT, but is the only POC option I currently know of.

Abbott i-STAT BHCG Discontinuation
Good morning,
It was brought to our attention that the Abbott i-STAT BHCG cartridges will be discontinued, and last shipments going out September 2025. Has anyone decided yet, or have ideas, of replacement testing? We have a FreeStanding ED that doesn't have much additional table-top space, so looking for a small instrument to add it to.
Thank you!
