Hematology LABBOOK 2015 35 Hematology LABBOOK 2015 Workflow automation In addition, the DxH Workcell's unique bi-directional sample trans- port system automatically distributes samples between the analy- sers, reducing potential delays in sample testing and the reporting of results. Critical STAT samples or body fluids can be added while the system is running, without the need to interrupt routine sample testing. Additionally, the Single Aspiration Pathway on the DxH 800, DxH 600 and the DxH Slidemaker Stainer (SMS) eliminates time consuming mode-to-mode calibration issues. User-defined decision rules for auto-rerun and reflex testing further improve workflow and reduce turnaround time (TAT). The latest DxH data information management system consolidates order entries, and is able to manage sample review data for up to 90,000 results. For Quality Control management, it provides stora- ge capacity for 30 control files, each with 150 runs per instrument. Detecting and counting abnormal cells, particularly if they occur in low frequency, depends on the quality of the blood films pro- duced. The inclusion of the automated Beckman Coulter DxH Slide- maker Stainer (SMS) in the workcell enables user defined decision rules drive automated slide preparation and staining, without the need for manual intervention. This delivers a more reliable and consistent smear quality regardless of the blood consistency. The SMS incorporates LEAN design principles, is easy to configure and requires minimal maintenance. It is simple to make and stain smears from: 9 9 9 Innovative solutions in addition to traditional cellular analysis provide labs with the option of handling the white blood count (WBC) differential through Beckman Coulter's exclusive HematoFlow technology.* This uses multi-colour monoclonal antibody technology coupled with flow cytometric analysis to accurately count cells that cannot be identified by conventional hematology analysers or even morphological examination. Beckman Coulter's hematology solutions empower labs to: 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 Over the last 60 years, the company's scientific leadership and legacy of advancing hematology innovation has empowered labo- ratories of all sizes. Beckman Coulter solutions deliver technology that lowers manual review rates, provides true standardisation, optimises end-to-end workflow and increases efficiency. These so- lutions aid faster and better diagnostics, providing clinicians with the information they need to make treatment decisions earlier and with more confidence Ð to the overall benefit of the patient.
