Module 3 Key Terminology

 

Diagnostic Technology: tools used to collect and anlayze the information and materials needed for diagnosis. Some diagnostic tech actually makes the diagnosis, while others assist the healthcare worker in making the diagnosis. Diagnostic technology should not be confused with treatment technology.

Examples:

  • Lipid Panel
  • Urinalysis
  • Database of signs and symptoms
  • Thermometer

Point-of-Care Diagnostic Technology:diagnostic technology that provides a diagnosis in front of the patient. The technology itself provides a diagnostic output such as a glucose level, while the clinician or patient may read/interpret the diagnostic output. Point of care technology is often considered better, because it allows the patient and healthcare worker to have immediate answers and plan a course of treatment more quickly. 

Examples: 

  • Pregnancy test strips/sticks
  • Glucometers
  • Portable ultrasound
  • Smartphone ECG device
