NEXT GENERATION DIAGNOSTICS

Minimize tech time and maximize diagnostic potential with unique parameters and reflexive testing capabilities. Sysmex’s leading-edge technology and unmatched expertise deliver the tools you need to build the lab of tomorrow.

Sysmex has automated and expanded the measures of hematopoiesis to accelerate the identification and enumeration of reportable immature cell indices. Below are the ACPs that are uniquely provided by Sysmex:

  • Immature Granulocytes (IG) – the number of metamyelocytes, myelocytes, and promyelocytes.
  • Reticulocyte Hemoglobin (RET-He) – the amount of hemoglobin in the reticulocyte.
  • Immature Platelet Fraction (IPF) – a measure of immature platelets present.

This unique methodology provides sensitivity and selectivity to improve platelet counting accuracy in the presence of abnormalities.

Fluorescent flow technology is used to automate two part differentials in body fluid samples; this speeds turnaround time and enhances consistency and reproducability of patient results. Excellent low-end sensitivity permits automated results to be reported on samples with few cells. This greatly minimizes the need for time-consuming and laborious manual counts.

This automatically generates additional tests based on user-defined rules to reduce the amount of time to interpret results, increase consistency in interpreting results, and reduce the need for manual counting.

We maintain a team of clinical experts on staff who become an integral, working part of the customer relationship, providing ongoing clinical expertise and support to your clinicians, the lab and its stakeholders.

Sysmex Patient Care Specialists are uniquely qualified to assist your lab with the promotion, adoption and implementation of advanced clinical parameters while keeping you apprised of the latest clinical and diagnostic developments coming out of Sysmex R&D.

ADVANCED TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES

Sysmex analyzers utilize thoughtful software applications to streamline operations, reduce maintenance and calibration time, and ensure quality. Remote monitoring through our secure network, SNCS, allows us to proactively help you avoid costly downtimes.

Sysmex technical specialists perform routine calibration of your analyzers remotely, reducing non-productive analyzer time by as much as 84% and making sure you’re always in compliance. Sysmex uses evidence-based calibration to take available information from the analyzer and combine it with information from Insight™ and your analyzer to make informed decisions about the analyzer calibration status. Having all the information available translates into more confidence in the quality of calibration verification and patient results.

BeyondCare Quality Monitor
Sysmex BeyondCareSM Quality Monitor (BCQM) is a unique, evidence-based quality management program that monitors the health and accuracy of your analyzers. Imagine the confidence and freedom your lab will gain from an intelligent system that monitors the quality of your investment in real time, optimizing the performance of your laboratory and the value of your results. The BeyondCare Quality Monitor is available for hematology and urinalysis systems, and will revolutionize the way you look at QC. To learn more, click here.

Information and insights help improve decision-making in virtually every area of your lab, from clinical performance and productivity to staffing.

Sysmex Caresphere™ Workflow Solution (WS) provides a complete battery of business intelligence reports enabling the laboratory to monitor and evaluate key performance data and metrics associated with lavender top testing data.

Faster, more accurate recognition of proper dye cartridges is achieved, further decreasing time involved in reagent change-outs.

This enables standardization of rules and processes across your entire enterprise, making auto-validation possible for all analyzers, whether you’re operating one or 100 locations. Sysmex Caresphere™ Workflow Solution (WS) provides software that consolidates all analyzers and devices via one order interface and result interface to the LIS. The ability to combine multiple devices into a single interface can be both a cost savings and operational advantage.
Sysmex Concentrated Reagent Delivery System provides diluent from concentrate, reducing change-outs by over 90%, which results in less container lifting for lab staff and frees up valuable storage space.
Sysmex has moved beyond merely remotely monitoring your analyzer. We use proactive services to help prevent emergency downtime. Customers who use a secure SNCS™ connection tell us how critical predictive monitoring is to their overall productivity.

Remote, secure internet access connects your lab and our 24/7 staff for analyzer monitoring, automated peer-comparison and easy calibration verification.

PROCESS OPTIMIZATION

Automated Lavender Top Management® means hands-free processing of more than 90 percent of your samples when you customize with the SP-50TM slidemaker stainer, DI-60TM cell image analyzer and TS-10TM tube sorter. Sysmex Caresphere™ Workflow Solution (WS) decision support software is designed to help labs achieve exceptional efficiency through paperless workflow, standardized rules and streamlined auto-validation.

Sysmex Caresphere™ Workflow Solution (WS) decision support software for the clinical laboratory allows labs to improve efficiency and increase capacity without adding staff, enabling you to seamlessly manage your entire suite of hematology data while increasing auto-validation rates to as high as 90%.
