North America Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDT) Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030

North America Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDT) Market  Analysis and Size

The rapid diagnostic tests, also called rapid tests, are easy-to-use tests that offer quick results, usually in less than 20 minutes. Unlike other standard and conventional tests, where the diagnosis and sampling are sent to the laboratory, the results obtained from rapid diagnostic test kits are provided at the point of care. The point of care is a place where the patients get cured. The point of care can be a provider's office, a clinic, or a patient's own house. The RDTs are applicable for diagnosing and testing infectious diseases such as COVID-19, cardiology diseases, oncology, pregnancy, fertility testing, toxicology testing, drugs-of-abuse testing, cardiometabolic testing, and glucose monitoring.
