Aid organizations generally work in settings and situations that require robust and mobile equipment. Working in remote areas, possibly cut off by conflict, difficult terrain or natural disaster, makes it extra difficult, if not impossible, to send test samples to central laboratories. But you need answers here and now. How do you obtain test results accurate and precise enough to make a diagnosis and take action to help the patient?

A speedy analysis and diagnosis is perhaps more valuable in an aid situation than anywhere else. And with no laboratory available, you need to be able to rely on the equipment you have. HemoCue^® point-of-care testing devices provide you with laboratory accurate test results. Data that you may need in order to prescribe antibiotics, to treat infections, and distribute food vouchers, to counter malnutrition patients and triage care.
