Clinical Validation of Integrated Point-of-Care Devices for the Management of Non-Communicable Diseases.

Non-communicable diseases are the leading cause of death and disability across India, including in the poorest states. Effective disease management, particularly for cardiovascular diseases, requires the tracking of several biochemical and physiological parameters over an extended period of time. Currently, patients must go to diagnostic laboratories and doctors' clinics or invest in individual point-of-care devices for measuring the required parameters.
