patient monitoring
Monitoring in the Lab
With increased patient volume at healthcare facilities and the associated scarcity of
resources, evaluating disease severity can help optimize resource utilization by
ensuring that the appropriate level of treatment is provided.
HEMATOLOGY
The complete blood count (CBC), one of the most commonly performed tests
in the world, can be a fast and cost-effective way to support patient assessments.
procalcitonin (pct)
Recent studies suggest the value of PCT testing among COVID-19 patients, as some
patients may experience bacterial infections. This testing will help indicate who may
benefit from antibiotics as part of their treatment.
