Résumé

La biologie délocalisée, dénommée également Point of Care Testing (POCT), est une solution miniaturisée de mesure de paramètres biologiques réduisant à son strict minimum la phase pré-analytique. Elle autorise des mesures de paramètres sanguins directement au chevet du patient, pour un résultat au plus proche du processus décisionnel. Son intérêt potentiel en médecine d’urgence est de contribuer à améliorer le temps de passage en réduisant le délai de rendu des résultats. La preuve de ce concept n’est cependant pas parfaitement apportée par la littérature, alors même que les solutions technologiques actuelles permettent d’envisager la réalisation de la majorité des paramètres biologiques d’urgence en POCT. Dans cette mise au point, à travers la littérature scientifique, nous abordons l’état des lieux, la place et les perspectives de la biologie délocalisée dans les services d’urgence intrahospitaliers.

Abstract

The point of care testing (POCT) is a miniaturized solution for the measurement of biological parameters, shortening the pre-analytical phase. It allows the dosage of biological parameters directly at the bedside close to the decision process. Its potential added-value in emergency medicine is to contribute in improving the length of stay by reducing the time to result. However, the proof of concept has not been completely reported in the literature, even though actual devices allow considering the measurement of the majority of emergency biological parameters through POCT. In this review, cruising the scientific literature, we discuss the state of the art, place and perspectives of POCT in emergency departments.
