Popis: HemoCue® point-of care devices are widely used in Bordeaux university hospital center to assess hemoglobin in critical situations, with 45 devices in 13 health units. Based on our experience, we here propose essential steps in order to prepare the accreditation file. We develop risks analysis, mandatory validation method check points, and caregiver professional training. Among the tasks, precise reference quality instructions i.e. instruction for use, maintenance and troubleshooting should be available. We also share reflections to offer solutions to encountered difficulties. The implemented quality management must rely on a solid and involved laboratory organization. A strong caregiver membership also appears to be the key to move forward.
