Sigma Metric Analysis
A recent study assessed the performance of a new compact chemistry analyzer, the Mindray BS480.
The Medical Laboratory of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University has become the first Sigma Verified institution in Yunnan province.
Are there other choices than the big 5 diagnostic analyzers? Beyond Beckman, After Abbott, Roche, Siemens, and Vista, are there viable alternatives for chemisty analyzers? We take a look at a new automated clinical chemistry analyzer, evaluating both its "closed" and "open" reagent performance.
The latest POC HbA1c analyzer is analyzed for its fitness for purpose, applying not only IFCC standards, Westgard standars, but also (Lenters-)Westra standards. Can this new instrument run the gauntlet of all these benchmarks?
There's another new POC HbA1c analyzer to be analyzed. Is the A1C EZ 2.0 fit for purpose? Using the IFCC and Lenters-Westra standards, we evaluate its performance.
