MORE SAMPLES, LESS MICROSCOPE WE HAVE A SOLUTION TO YOUR NEEDS IN URINALYSIS IRIS: MOVING URINALYSIS FORWARD
WE HAVE A SOLUTION TO YOUR NEEDS We can help solve your problems 1. Improved Workflow and Productivity Time savings: reduce the need for manual microscopy and minimise repeat testing Minimise operator interventions to enhance productivity and walkaway capabilities while testing: Auto-release of normal results High Throughput We understood very quickly that the iq200sprint would permit us to double our productivity... while it was only 42 samples per hour with the previous analyser of the lab (analyser from another supplier) Testimonial: Etude de cas: Comment doubler sa productivité et diminuer ses coûts: l exemple de Biolaris, Laval Walkaway Capabilities As of today, Beckman Coulter is one of the only companies who can provide an integrated solution for urine chemistry and urine microscopy. We see this as a huge advantage to save time and reallocate our people. As this system is a walkaway system, you don t need your staff to be at the bench. Nowadays, the person in charge of the iricell is also doing sample preparation. This is a major benefit of going to a fully automation solution, we are now able to do more in less time! Dr. Koenders, Elkerliek Hospital, Helmond, Netherlands iricell customer Increase Productivity and Employee Satisfaction Since automating urinalysis, employee satisfaction and staff productivity have greatly improved resulting in very happy laboratory staff...

IN URINALYSIS 2. Increased Clinical Confidence More insight: Provides a complete and consolidated report of specimen status through multiple parameters Enhanced efficiency: Better workload and staff management Standardise and Reduce the Need for Manual Microscopy With our previous supplier we had to review on the manual microscope, 25 to 30% of our urine samples Our new iq200 suppresses the manual microscopic review. Testimonial: Etude de cas: Comment doubler sa productivité et diminuer ses coûts: l exemple de Biolaris, Laval Accuracy of Results Focus on Critical Samples The evaluation of the results obtained in a laboratory with a high number of exams leads us to implement this solution for recognition of atypical elements. The high degree of concordance confirms the clinical benefits of comments provided by the system and the positive outcomes of early diagnosis. Poster: R.

WE HAVE A SOLUTION TO YOUR NEEDS We can help solve your problems 3. Increased Clinical Confidence Reduce subjectivity: Standardises processes with Auto-Particle Recognition (APR) Software Time savings: Reduces manual microscopic review and repeat testing Standardise and Reduce the Need for Manual Microscopy With our previous supplier we had to review on the manual microscope, 25 to 30% of our urine samples. Our new iq200 suppresses the manual microscopic review. Testimonial: Etude de cas: Comment doubler sa productivité et diminuer ses coûts: l exemple de Biolaris, Laval We spend less time per sample and our productivity has been improve by 50%.

IN URINALYSIS 4. Support for ISO Certification Precision kit: validation of manufacturer s specification Support tools, bibliography Traceability information for controls, calibrators and all reagents and consumables Support for ISO Certification How goes the certification of your analyser? We didn t face any difficulty, because we had training courses and we received all documents we need for this ISO certification.

WE HAVE A SOLUTION TO YOUR NEEDS We can help solve your problems 5. Cost Saving, Labour Saving Minimise operator intervention: on-screen verification and ready to use reagents Less unnecessary work: Identifies samples not likely to require a urine culture which dramatically reduces unnecessary workload by screening urine samples for Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Cost Savings Our laboratory is outsourcing urine culture to a regional microbiology lab and all cultures are invoiced to our hospital. By implementing the UTI screening, we save more than 20 per urine sample. Knowing that we have 65% of reduction in urine culture testing and a total of 11,000 urine samples per year (total of URKL and USC), the savings add up to more than 100,000 per year. Dr. Koenders, Elkerliek Hospital, Helmond, Netherlands iricell customer Overall, the total number of samples which would require culture using our criteria would be reduced by 42%. Significantly streamlining our working practice. Annually this represents over 25,000 samples a substantial saving in terms of time and money.

IN URINALYSIS 6. Increased Clinical Confidence and Performance Global Experience in Urine Microscopy Quality: Results correlate with the Gold standard method (manual microscopy) Proven technology: Proprietary software auto-classifies and quantifies 12 urine particles, plus sub-classification of 27 particles On-Screen Review of Images and Standardisation The automated analysis of native urine standardises the counting of the elements, and saving images provides the opportunity to review the previous reports of the patient.
