“…Regarding data reception, along with the results of the sample, the system incorporates other complementary information related to the context in which the sample is taken, such as GPS position, information about the patient, healthcare professional responsible for taking sample, measurement equipment information, incidents, etc. The information is stored in compliance with the HL7 specifications [ 36 ] Data protection includes all the elements needed to encrypt the data, safeguard the identity of the users, and certify both the origin and the correction thereof, so that all international data protection laws are complied with. In terms of transmission, the virtual organization facilitates communication through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to send data to a connected device, following the standards of the Edge Computing architecture.…”

Nucleic acid amplification diagnostics offer outstanding features of sensitivity and specificity. However, they still lack speed and robustness, require extensive infrastructure, and are neither affordable nor user-friendly. Thus, they have not been extensively applied in point-of-care diagnostics, particularly in low-resource settings. In this work, we have combined the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technology with a handheld portable device (SMART-LAMP) developed to perform real-time isothermal nucleic acid amplification reactions, based on simple colorimetric measurements, all of which are Bluetooth-controlled by a dedicated smartphone app. We have validated its diagnostic utility regarding different infectious diseases, including Schistosomiasis, Strongyloidiasis, and COVID-19, and analyzed clinical samples from suspected COVID-19 patients. Finally, we have proved that the combination of long-term stabilized LAMP master mixes, stored and transported at room temperature with our developed SMART-LAMP device, provides an improvement towards true point-of-care diagnosis of infectious diseases in settings with limited infrastructure. Our proposal could be easily adapted to the diagnosis of other infectious diseases.
