Systems point-of-care for immediate determination of biochemical parameters or hemtología are extremely useful for immediate analysis.

   Glucometers years enable accurate, immediate and reliable determination of blood glucose. Since years ago coagulation parameters are measured in units of hemostasis with point-of-care systems with high reliability to the point of self used as outpatient programs INR control.

    The use of coagulation-check emergency equipment can be very important for urgent, to know immediate coagulation  information of  their values for determining emergency surgery.

     In the case of stroke can be very important to determine INR values immediately to assess the normality of the need to initiate thrombolysis, or if anticoagulated patient with stroke know if their values are less than 1.7 to allow in if possible urgent administration of rtPA. The determination can allow initiating treatment with rtPA without waiting analytical anamnesis except doubts.

     Turn on hemorrhagic stroke may be useful for evaluating in patient with anticoagulant therapy if the INR is too high and start to reverse coagulation times.

         Our experience shows less 1 % of mismatch against laboratory coagulation test in acute stroke (patient with normal coagulation times, but coagucheck display a increased time)
