Abstract: Point-of-care testing (POCT) is the practice of diagnosing and monitoring diseases where the patient is located, as opposed
to traditional treatment conducted solely in a medical laboratory or other clinical setting. POCT has been less common in
the recent past due to a lack of portable medical devices capable of facilitating effective medical testing. However, recent
growth has occurred in this field due to advances in diagnostic technologies, device miniaturization, and progress in wearable
electronics. Among these developments, electrochemical sensors have attracted interest in the POCT field due to their high
sensitivity, compact size, and affordability. They are used in various applications, from disease diagnosis to health status
monitoring. In this paper we explore recent advancements in electrochemical sensors, the methods of fabricating them, and
the various types of sensing mechanisms that can be used. Furthermore, we delve into methods for immobilizing specific
biorecognition elements, including enzymes, antibodies, and aptamers, onto electrode surfaces and how these sensors are
used in real-world POCT settings.
