To review the evolution of anemia diagnostic methods, evaluate current commercial point-of-care systems, and examine emerging technologies designed to identify underlying causes.
Surveyed conventional and modern clinical approaches used to quantify blood hemoglobin concentrations.
Assessed commercial point-of-care testing platforms for performance, cost, and accessibility constraints in resource-limited settings.
Evaluated emerging biosensing and diagnostic platforms engineered to link anemia detection with etiology-specific biomarkers.
Point-of-care anemia screening remains severely restricted in low- and middle-income countries due to high instrumentation costs and technical complexity.
Novel portable sensing technologies demonstrate improved speed and portability for hemoglobin estimation compared to traditional centralized laboratory assays.
Next-generation point-of-care platforms increasingly integrate differential diagnostic capabilities to distinguish nutritional, infectious, oncologic, or inherited causes of anemia.
