Dublin, Sept. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/k9cqwf/point_of_care)
has announced the addition of the "Point
of Care Diagnostic Testing: World Markets 2013" report to their
offering.
Point of care testing (POCT) enables rapid diagnostic tests to be
performed while the patient is at the point of care facility where
results can be obtained immediately, rather than waiting hours or
even days for outside lab results to arrive. Point of care testing
covers: blood glucose testing, blood gas and electrolytes analysis,
rapid coagulation testing, rapid cardiac markers diagnostics, drugs
of abuse screening, urine strips testing, pregnancy testing, fecal
occult blood analysis, food pathogens screening, hemoglobin
diagnostics, infectious disease testing and cholesterol
screening.
Point of Care Diagnostic
Testing World Markets 2013 describes latest developments in the
point of care testing market segment. It examines clinical
instruments, devices and reagents and supplies as utilized in
near-patient environments like hospital emergency rooms, critical
care units, clinics and doctor's offices. The study defines the
dollar volume of point of care sales and makes five year
projections both in the U.S. and worldwide - including Europe, Asia
and Latin America. It also examines in detail the point of care
sector for 25 individual country markets. A detailed summary of all
important instruments in each clinical market is provided with
emphasis on newly introduced products. Moreover, parallel areas
where rapid detection is important using hand-held devices such as
rapid detection of food pathogens and infectious diseases (MRSA,
herpes simplex, avian flu, West Nile virus and typhoid) are
discussed. Growth moderators and developing trends in point of care
applications, as well as technology platform innovations and
connectivity questions are examined in detail.
The report surveys almost all of the companies known to be
marketing, manufacturing or developing instruments and reagents for
the point of care market in the U.S. and worldwide. Each company is
discussed in depth, with a section on its history, product lines,
business and marketing analysis, and a subjective commentary of the
company's market position. Detailed tables and charts with sales
forecasts and market data are also included.
