  2. POCT Connectivity • Point-of-care testing (POCT) devices with the ability to link to each other and lab information systems (LISs)— known as connectivity—can help reduce medical errors, improve staff compliance with regulatory requirements, boost revenue from testing, and track wasted supplies. • Connectivity means no manual transcription in order to move test data into the LIS. Labs need point-of-care devices that capture all of the necessary information accurately and effectively.
