Webinar • Abbott Rapid Diagnostics International
About the CPD course
This video seminar features two expert speakers discussing:1.Diabetes management in the time of COVID-19 and the value of HbA1c point-of-care testing (POCT) 2.C-reactive protein (CRP) in the context of COVID-19 and CRP as an aid to reduce antibiotic prescribing in respiratory infections.Diabetes patients are more likely to experience severe complications and higher mortality if they contract COVID-19; especially those with poorly managed diabetes. POCT for HbA1c aids in achieving improved glycaemic control. CRP can reflect disease severity and may be an independent predictor of adverse outcome in COVID-19 patients.
