The Corona pandemic is keeping us in suspense for more than a year now. But thanks to tireless research, we know a lot more about the virus than in the beginning: What damage does it cause in the body? What is behind Long Covid? And what effects do the vaccines have? But despite Corona, we still must not loose track of other diseases – be it infectious or other. Learn at MEDICA 2021 how we keep our overview with laboratory medicine!

Discover the most innovative laboratory medical techniques!

Mobile and intelligent – emergency blood analysis

Things need to move fast in an emergency. Making the right call in this setting can be a challenge for emergency medical services – especially when symptoms are ambiguous, which is the case if a patient has difficulty breathing or exhibits a cardiovascular or poisoning emergency. A blood analysis is paramount to deliver a fast and accurate diagnosis. This is where mobOx comes in.

Point-of-care tests: rapid diagnosis in emergency situations

In emergency medicine, a faster diagnosis leads to a faster treatment of the patient. Point-of-care test solutions can provide immediate on-site insights into the patient’s condition. COVID-19 adds another dimension: the devices can provide a level of security and safety – one that goes beyond intensive care.
