1. A point of care computer comprising:
- a device interface for receiving patient test data for a patient test from a point of care device;
a network interface for transmitting the patient test data to a remote server system;
program memory for storing a software application;
a processor for reading and implementing the software application in the memory; and
an operator interface to allow an operator to input data;
wherein the program memory stores an application for implementation by the processor to control the device interface to receive the patient test data, to control the network interface to transmit the patient test data to the server and to receive data identifying additional required data, to control the operator interface to generate a display interface indicating the additional required data and to receive operator input data in response, and to control the network interface to transmit the operator input data to the server system.
