Radiometer’s new AQURE point-of-care (POC) management system offers hospitals a customisable, highly flexible and scalable software solution with the capability to monitor and control the performance of their POC testing platform. The easy-to-use system encompasses a device centre with online analyser, parameter and QC status instantly available. AQURE supports Radiometer blood gas and immunoassay analysers, enabling their remote access and control, and its open architecture also allows monitoring and control of non-Radiometer point-of-care testing devices.

The A&E Department at Blackpool Victoria Hospital is taking advantage of the point-of-care immunoassay capabilities of Radiometer’s AQT90 FLEX analyser to assess patients with low risk chest pain, helping to speed up diagnosis and reduce the need for unnecessary admissions.
