OPKO Diagnostics Point-of-Care System
OPKO Diagnostics is transitioning in-vitro medical diagnostic tests from the laboratory to the point-of-care, such as physicians’ offices, patients’ homes, and emergency settings. This novel point-of-care system includes the following elements:
Tests Under Development:
- Prostate-Specific Antigen (Total PSA) Test
- 4KScore™ Prostate Cancer Test
- Vitamin D Test
- Testosterone Test
- Alzheimer’s Disease Test
Hardware System:
OPKO’s point-of-care hardware system consists of a disposable, microfluidic test cassette and a robust, compact analyzer. This device is able to produce laboratory-quality test results from a single finger-stick of blood in about 10 minutes.
Benefits of OPKO’s Point-of-Care System:
- Patients benefit from accurate, quick results during their clinical visit
- Healthcare providers experience more efficient clinical workflows and direct reimbursement
- Stakeholders enjoy lower total cost of operation and enhanced customer experience
