Webinars

Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia (EAH) remains among the most challenging on-site emergencies in endurance medicine — frequently misdiagnosed and undertreated in both event medical tents and pre-hospital settings. Join this webinar to strengthen clinical recognition, review evidence-based treatment approaches, and explore how point-of-care testing can support faster, more informed decisions in the field.

Sepsis remains a leading cause of hospital mortality, yet timely lactate measurement, antibiotic administration, and fluid resuscitation continue to challenge SEP-1 bundle compliance. Join this session to learn how point-of-care lactate testing can accelerate decision-making, improve compliance, and support faster, more coordinated sepsis care.

This webinar will evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of HbA1c and CGM and discuss the use and interpretation of laboratory HbA1c measurements alongside CGM technology in the care of patients with diabetes.

Attendees are entitled to ACCENT credits from the ADLM.

In pediatric critical care transport, every second matters. Join Timothy McLaughlin, RN, BSN, CFRN, EMT from MetroHealth System, as he explores how point-of-care testing (POCT) provides real-time lab data, empowering transport teams to make rapid, informed decisions even in resource-limited settings.

In this webinar, our presenters, Marcy Anderson and Chad Juhl, will address the challenges of adapting traditional lab standards to POCT and exploring automated quality management. This integration spans across all testing phases—pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical—ensuring precise patient test results across diverse point-of-care settings.

In this webinar, you will learn about a real-world use case of point-of-care testing within the pre-hospital phase. Our presenters, Chris Briggs, M.S., and Justin Northeim, D.O., both accredited EMS professionals, will discuss their direct experiences when incorporating POCT into their routine EMS activities.

This webinar will review an evidence-based and end-user focused strategy created to support early identification and follow up of microvascular disease for patients living with diabetes and experiencing homelessness. Care providers and laboratory professionals will be provided opportunity to learn more about a minimally-disruptive model that leverages point of care tests, and to reflect on how they can pivot to better meet the needs of end-users within their respective practice.

This webinar will examine initial findings from the ICare-FASTER trial, focusing on faster risk-stratification methods in emergency care. Dr. Martin Than will showcase the impact of point-of-care technology on reducing patient length of stay at Christchurch Hospital, New Zealand. Attendees will gain insights into adopting high-sensitivity troponin testing to improve patient care and resource management in emergency departments.

Healthcare grapples with intricate quality management challenges, notably in adapting traditional lab standards to point-of-care testing (POCT), where errors commonly occur in the pre-analytical phase. The adoption of near-patient testing like POCT minimizes the risk of these pre-analytical errors. This webinar delves into CLIA quality standards of how the Integri-sense Technology with the RAPIDPoint® 500e Blood Gas System, emphasizing automated quality checks throughout testing phases to ensure accurate patient results and equipping healthcare professionals with the tools to deliver reliable patient outcomes.

This webinar will address challenges that can impact blood gas testing due to pre-analytic factors such as sample collection, environmental exposure, and proper sample mixing.

Key Objectives:

• Identify the ideal collection methods for blood gas testing
• Identify the challenges of collection and pre-analytic sample handling
• Describe the impact of pre-analytic challenges on Point of Care (POCT) blood gas testing

Attendees are entitled to ACCENT credits from the ADLM and/or P.A.C.E. credits from the ASCLS.

Diabetes affects more than 1 in 10 people in the world and the vast majority of them are also considered to be obese. Lifestyle interventions remain paramount in the prevention and management of these conditions. This webinar reviews evidence-based strategies to support personalized multidisciplinary interventions for patients living with diabetes and obesity.

Attendees are entitled to ACCENT credits from the ADLM and/or P.A.C.E. credits from the ASCLS.

This webinar will explore how Bumrungrad International Hospital in Thailand implemented a single POCT Data Management solution to help meet their organizational needs. 

• Describe common pitfalls of POCT operations 
• Explain the benefits of a good POCT management ecosystem 
• Discuss how to effectively implement POCT services 

Attendees are entitled to ACCENT credits from the AACC and/or P.A.C.E. credits from the ASCLS.

Point-of-care testing (POCT) is growing in popularity as a means of delivering faster turnaround time of test results closer to the patient. This session will review the latest recommendations and clinical scenarios where rapid diagnosis of pregnancy is needed. The benefits and limitations of POCT will be explored. 

Attendees are entitled to ACCENT credits from the AACC and/or P.A.C.E. credits from the ASCLS. 

• Recognize the clinical implications of increased lactate levels
• Review hospital sepsis protocols and the therapeutic measures that may be implemented
• Compare point of care lactate testing vs central laboratory testing 

Attendees are entitled to P.A.C.E. credits from the ASCLS and/or ACCENT credits from the AACC.
