Popis: The point-of-care testing obtains growing prevalence in medical practice due to application of portative analytical devices of advanced technologies. The advantages of these devises are more prompt analysis results and more simple procedure of application disposable for duplication by laymen. However, in practical work, are obvious the shortcomings related to direct and potential risks for patient in case of using unreliable analysis results as a validation of implementation of treatment measures harmful for patient. Under implementation and application of point-of-care testing the ratio advantages/risks is to be carefully assessed.
