EPOC™ is destined to facilitate broad adoption of patient-side testing by healthcare enterprises. Cost-effective results are delivered at multiple point-of-care locations with state-of-the-art lab accuracy.

 

PERFORMANCE

Lab-equivalent accuracy with results in 30 seconds on a 100 microliter sample.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

• Pre-analytical
  Immediate introduction of a patient’s blood sample into a calibrated test card minimizes pre-analytical sample handling error.
• Analytical
  Automation of quality control of all steps of the test procedure assures reliable and robust operation at the point of care. The EPOC™ System monitors conformance of test cards, readers and user procedures each time a test is performed.
• Post-analytical
  The complete test record is captured at the point of care, reducing errors associated with post-analytical handling.

AUTOMATION AND SCALABILITY OF PROCESSES SUPPORTING POINT OF CARE

• Enterprise-wide Connectivity
  EPOC™ can be seamlessly installed into hospitals with WLAN and mobile EMR solutions or existing point of care testing installations.
• Point of Care Reagent Storage
  Compact design and room temperature stability enable EPOC™ test cards to be stored at the patient side with the card reader. Frequency of distribution of test reagents to the point of care is dramatically reduced.
• Test Card Tracking
  Bar code identification enables automation of test card verification and inventory management.

PLATFORM FLEXIBILITY

In future products, EPOC™ test card technology will be adapted to provide clinically useful test panels encompassing categories that include blood chemistry, hematology, hemostasis, and immunoassay:

• Critical care panel
• Basic metabolic panel
• Enzyme panel
• Cardiac panel
• Hemostasis
• Hematology
