| Abstract: | Background: Early detection of hypothyroidism through point-ofcare testing (POCT) is relevant for high-risk individuals and those previously diagnosed who may remain uncontrolled due to inadequate adherence or sub-optimal dosing. Establishing pharmacist-led thyroid POCT enables timely screening and ongoing monitoring of hypothyroidism. [excerpt] |
