Keeping up-to-date with latest industry trends emerging from within the screening and testing industry is crucial to the healthcare professional, specifically in Europe, where the In-Vitro Diagnostics (IVD), clinical laboratory, molecular diagnostics and Point-of-Care Testing markets are some of the rapid growing in the world.
Regulations around medical and IVD devices in Europe are also advancing which involves imperative improvements to modernise the current system including risk-classification, and improved transparency. Under these new regulations, the classification of devices is based on risk, and manufacturers need to establish that their medical device meets the requirements by carrying out a conformity assessment. Essentially, the European screening and testing ecosystem is becoming safer, faster and more efficient, and technology and regulations are evolving to put patient safety and care at the heart of healthcare delivery. According to the FDA, non-contact infrared thermometers and other kinds of thermal screening systems employ a range of methods to determine the temperature of objects like humans.
Moreover, the pandemic has also raised the use of technology in the screening and testing arena. Technologies like AI can instantly parse through many people at once to identify people with high temperatures. This can assist to identify symptomatic individuals. Besides, the IoT strategies, especially in the healthcare sector can be categorised into remote patient surveillance, remote health management and control, sensor-based handwashing systems and immersive RFID surveillance that deliver best assessment, improved diagnosis and successful patient care.
