Features & Benefits
Streamline patient-testing workflow.
By moving testing to the patient’s side, caregivers, patients, and hospital administration all benefit from a less-complex testing process that improves turnaround times, patient care, and operational efficiencies.
Accelerate clinical decision making.
Empower clinicians to make faster decisions with lab-quality results at the patient’s side, enhancing clinical decision making and improving patient outcomes.
Simplify inventory management.
By incorporating a full menu on a single, room temperature-stable test card bar-coded for quality assurance, the epoc system delivers a more efficient and easy-to-manage patient-side testing program.
Deliver real-time results and reporting.
With an integrated, wireless connection, you can easily transmit results from the patient’s side to the EMR/LIS/HIS in real time and gain centralized control of decentralized testing.

“I think our (sepsis) mortality on the initial floors dropped by almost 50% in the first 3 to 6 months.”
Jason Smith, MD,
Huntsville Hospital
“After using the epoc Point of Care Blood Analysis System for 8 months, a 48% reduction in operating costs over the previous year was achieved.”
Clarke Woods, BS, and Dave Culton, BA.
Pinnacle Health Proven. 2012
“The epoc system showed excellent precision and accuracy and compared favorably with the I-STAT and ABL 835 Radiometer assay results. Evaluation studies were performed as per the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines.”
Shweta Agarwal, MD, and Rabia Shafi, MD, et al.
Point of Care December 2014; 13(4):132-136
“The epoc system uses a single test card with all the different analytes including glucose, lactate, creatinine, and chloride, whereas the I-STAT system uses multiple test cartridges for the same results. Lastly, the smart card technology of epoc reduces cost and maximizes efficiency in the hospital setting.”
