As introduced by the authors, the hospital since 2017, established based on the hospital′s total quality management system, the POCT management committee, and built the hospital′s POCT quality management system. Thanks to its efforts, the hospital has fully standardized the POCT management from equipment procurement, test, maintenance, personnel training and examination, thus further ensuring medical quality.
