dc.description.abstract | A poster presentation regarding point-of-care testing for streptococcus pyogenes in community pharmacies. Introduction: Point-of-care testing can be defined as pathology testing performed on-site during the patient consultation. It allows a fast test result to be produced and used to make an instant, evidence-based clinical decision. This project focused on Streptococcus pyogenes Rapid Testing. Aims: ● To determine the sensitivity and specificity of a Streptococcus Group A Rapid Test Kit. ● To determine if point-of-care Streptococcus A testing is as efficient as laboratory testing. ● To determine patient and pharmacist acceptability to point-of-care Streptococcus Group A testing. | en_GB |
