How the test works
From blood test to result – on screen or in the app
botissCARE, VHC and Qassay all measure from a capillary blood drop and provide a quantitative result in approximately 15 minutes – but the result is displayed differently afterwards. Follow the three steps from sample to result.
Trin 1
1
The sample is takenA capillary blood sample from the patient.

Step 3 · The result is displayed directly on the device
The reader unit even displays the quantitative value on its own display. No app, no synchronization – the result is ready to be noted in the journal as soon as the measurement time has elapsed.

Step 3 · The result is displayed in an associated app
The reader unit sends the result to an app on a phone or tablet, where it is displayed, stored, and can be shared – ideal if you want digital journaling of test results.
Why test at the clinic
Point-of-care diagnostics give you the answer while the decision needs to be made
Chairside diagnostics is not an end in itself – it is relevant when the result genuinely influences the treatment you are planning. Here are three reasons why it makes good clinical sense to test in the clinic.
01
No external lab waiting time
The result is ready while the patient is still in the chair
A capillary blood sample is analysed directly in the clinic, providing a quantitative result in approximately 15 minutes – instead of waiting several days for a response from an external laboratory. This means the treatment plan can be determined during the same visit, instead of being postponed or requiring an extra trip to the GP. See Test Readers
02
Direct correlation to the treatment plan
The indicator is only relevant if it changes the decision
Vitamin D status is important for bone healing and osseointegration and is therefore relevant to know before implant placement. CRP is a marker of systemic inflammation and can provide objective input before major invasive procedures. HbA1C reflects long-term blood sugar control and is important for wound healing and periodontal status in diabetic patients. In all three cases, the point is not the test itself, but that it provides a concrete number to plan treatment from.
03
Improved patient dialogue – and a new service
A concrete figure opens the conversation about the connection between the mouth and body
A measurable result makes it easier to discuss with the patient the connection between oral health and general health, and can be used to motivate follow-up with their general practitioner or changed behavior. At the same time, point-of-care testing is an additional service the clinic can offer without investing in a full laboratory.
Marker → clinical relevance
Vitamin DBone healing and osseointegration – relevant before implant surgery
Low vitamin D status is associated with reduced bone density and can affect the bone's anchorage around an implant.
CRPSystemic inflammation – relevant before invasive procedures
An elevated CRP can indicate active systemic inflammation or infection, which should be clarified before a major surgical procedure is planned.
HbA1cLong-term blood sugar regulation – relevant in diabetes patients
A high HbA1c reflects poorly regulated blood sugar over the past 2-3 months and is associated with slower wound healing and an increased risk of periodontal breakdown.
