Data management solution for POC haemoglobin analysis

EKF Diagnostics has launched POC Connect, a data management smartphone application for its DiaSpect Tm haemoglobin analyser. Lightweight and palm-sized, the DiaSpect Tm delivers laboratory quality haemoglobin results within two seconds at the point of care (POC). With the availability of POC Connect, this makes it ideal for mobile health checks and anaemia screening in a range of locations, environments and climatic conditions.

This new POC solution will prove useful in countries with challenging environmental and geographical conditions where remote haemoglobin testing and access to the internet can be difficult. All that is needed is an android phone and DiaSpect Tm device to record haemoglobin results with dates and times, and then add unique identifiers such as patient ID, user ID, QC information, and comments.

Data are synched and stored on the smartphone in a history list for easy access. Data can then be transferred at any time as a protected CSV file and added to a central database or laboratory information system (LIS), as required.
