Abstract                         The healthcare landscape is witnessing a paradigm shift towards decentralized, rapid, and accessible diagnostics. Microfluidic devices, often dubbed "labs-on-a-chip," are at the forefront of this revolution, enabling point-of-care (POC) testing that empowers healthcare professionals and patients alike. This article delves into the intricate workings of microfluidic POC devices, exploring their applications in detecting infectious and chronic diseases, particularly in resource-limited settings.
