The systems offer fast, high quality CBC testing, running up to 60 samples per hour
Siemens Healthcare launches three new scalable hematology systems: the ADVIA 360 System, ADVIA 560 System and ADVIA 560 AL System. Siemens has broadened its spectrum of hematology solutions by introducing these systems. These lower capacity systems offer haematology testing capabilities for small to mid-sized laboratories and can also be used as back-up systems for larger diagnostic setups.
“We are proud to expand our family of scalable hematology analyzers with flexible and intuitive options to suit the demographic requirements of different laboratories in India. Siemens’ scalable options have been designed to meet the needs of our customers by giving accurate, reliable, easy-to-use and cost-efficient hematology solutions for different testing volumes.” says Richard Guest, CEO, Siemens Healthcare, India.
Reportedly, the systems offer fast, high quality CBC testing, running up to 60 samples per hour. Engineered for safety and ease-of-operation, the new ADVIA hematology systems help optimise and manage workflow through features, such as the choice of open- or closed-tube sampling and customisable result printing. Automatic anti-clogging and cleaning procedures are employed to ensure results reliability. Along with automated maintenance, this reduces manual procedures and biohazard exposure. Other features include: the option for manual or automatic calibration procedures, a cap-piercing function for accurate and safer sampling, a multilingual operating menu and bidirectional LIS communication for easy patient data transfer between laboratories and minimised paper-based work lists.
With a compact footprint, the ADVIA 360 System claims to allow smaller laboratories to generate reliable and accurate results while conserving benchtop space. This system provides a three-part white cell differential and storage capacity for 10,000 results. An integrated ticket printer streamlines results reporting.
The ADVIA 560 System can serve as the primary hematology analyzer in small to mid-sized laboratories and as a backup for the company’s ADVIA 2120i System in larger laboratories. It provides a five-part white cell differential and storage capacity of 100,000 results. Also, two scattergrams and two histograms per result help aid interpreting disease-state information. The ADVIA 560 AL System offers automatic sampling with an optional autoloader that simply plugs into the side of the system for even greater workflow efficiency and true “walk-away” capability.
