Near Patient Testing – opportunities via the NIHR Community MIC (Oxford)

By July 22, 2022No Comments

Still capacity for additional tests to go on the RAPTOR platform

TOUCAN project for NPTs for UTI is also running if anyone has tests where they would like to get independent patient data.

Does anyone have a POC/NPT test for Vitamin D? This is a clinical need for secondary care identified in triaging paediatrics presenting with abdominal pain.

Please get in touch with Phil Turner (philip.turner@phc.ox.ac.uk) in the first instance regarding any of the above opportunities.

The MIC would welcome a meeting with members from BIVDA Infectious Disease and Near Patient Testing groups on future work programmes so we hope to facilitate this early in the autumn.
