Clinical Trial Grade

Clinical Trial Grade Point-of-Care Analyser

The CHARM Analyser is a Clinical Trial Grade Point-of-Care (POC) Analyser, a high-performance diagnostic device designed for near patient’s use.
while meeting the rigorous data, quality, and regulatory standards required for clinical research.
Unlike standard portable monitors, the CHARM Analyser is a "professional grade" system, engineered to provide laboratory-quality results
(with high correlation to central lab standards) while ensuring immediate, actionable data for trial investigators.

Decentralized Clinical Trials with Point-of-Care Testing

The CHARM cm Point-of-care (POC) equipment enables the decentralized, execution of international clinical trials by allowing for rapid, lab-grade testing directly at the patient's location. These devices provide "clinical trial grade" data by delivering high-precision, actionable results in minutes, rather than days which helps in reducing screen failures, increasing patient retention, and expanding geographical reach for global studies. Point-of-care testing is widely recognized as a valuable tool for international multi-centre studies due to its ability to ensure analytical consistency across geographically dispersed sites. By utilising the same POCT hardware, reagents, and methodologies, research teams can minimize the analytical variability that often occurs when samples are sent to different central laboratories.

CHARM cm Key Advantages for Multi-Centre Studies

• Standardisation: Using the same platform (instrument and reagents) across all sites ensures that results are comparable, which is critical for the validity of pooled data.
• Uniformity Across Sites: Using the same POC devices and methodologies across different international locations ensures that testing is standardized, which minimizes variability in results.
• Reduced Pre-analytical Errors: Because samples do not require transport to a central lab, risks such as sample degradation, hemolysis, or clotting are significantly reduced.
• Uniform Calibration and Quality Control: Many POC devices have automated calibration and standardized, internal, or external quality controls (EQA), which can be managed consistently across sites.
• Rapid Data Availability: Immediate results allow for faster, standardized clinical decision-making across all sites.
