Why point-of-care?
Point-of-care (POC) diagnostics reduces costs and improves patient experience as it is performed at the point of care, such as the doctor's office, care facility - and with veterinary diagnostics, at animal clinics and stables. The ability to perform rapid testing outside laboratories facilitates the diagnostic process and the early steps of beginning treatment. POC testing is also highly beneficial for monitoring treatment.
The POC procedure is easy, as you can see on this video of performing the Labmaster LUCIA™ MxA test.
Point-of-care provides an efficient and reliable method for detection, monitoring and treatment. For instance, for patients suffering from chronic diseases, POC technology is an opportunity for personalized treatment. There is a clear trend of POC testing working in a complementary role in clinical healthcare, making diagnosis faster and more accessible.

Labmaster LUCIA™ platform delivers quick results for healthcare professionals working in near-patient environment.
Labmaster’s CRP and MxA tests are based on a wholeblood fingertip sample. The measurement returns a quantitative result within minutes.
The recently conducted clinical study on Labmaster LUCIA MxA test shows that the elevated level of MxA (Myxovirus resistance protein A) in blood indicates viral origin of infection in patients with fever and common respiratory symptoms.
Applied together, MxA and CRP tests are effiecient tools for the differentiation between bacterial and viral respiratory tract infections. They support diagnostic decisions on whether antibiotics are required and therefore aid in tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
The Labmaster LUCIA™ Vet Analyzer is a point-of-care device which makes testing easy and accessible. The measurement can be performed at point of care, such as clinics, veterinary hospitals, stables and animal care facilities.
