Abstract
As clinical chemists and laboratory scientists, we are often concerned when personnel who have little laboratory training begin to perform laboratory tests, such as in point-of-care applications. It may be easy to perform such tests today with modern analytical systems, but there still are things that could go wrong. We hope that some kind of quality system is used to check that everything is working okay with point-of-care analyses.Keywords
