3STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goal of this
study on the point-of-care (POC) industry is to
describe and review business opportunities in the
thriving near-patient testing market. This report

4REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY Over the last few
decades, there has been a strong trend toward POC
testing due to an increasing demand for
near-patient testing that provides rapid results.
More tests are being performed at the hospital
patients bedside, in physicians office
laboratories, outpatient clinics, emergency rooms
and intensive-care units. Critical-care
instruments combining selected important
chemistry, hematology and hemostasis parameters
have entered the market for POC testing in
emergency and operating rooms. The wider
availability of POC testing has revolutionized
the continuum of the patient-care process by
providing laboratory results rapidly and
efficiently at these locations. The trend toward
greater POC testing is driven by the faster
diagnostic benefits it provides.
