Ortho Clinical Diagnostics (Raritan, NJ, USA) presented its comprehensive, fully integrated and completely scalable solutions, including its broad menu of high-performing assays, at EUROMEDLAB 2022.

Ortho presented its VITROS Dashboards, a web-based system designed to provide productivity information regarding analyzers, test volumes, workload balance, HIT (Hemolysis, Icterus, Turbidity) levels, and reagent efficiency. The highlight of Ortho’s presentation at EUROMEDLAB 2022 was its VITROS COVID-19 Performance Dashboard - a web-based system designed to provide productivity information regarding Ortho analyzers, including volumes, workload balance, HIT levels, and reagent efficiency for each site within the health system. The VITROS COVID-19 Performance Dashboard is located within the Ortho Plus environment and is an extension of Ortho’s e-Connectivity Technology. e-Connectivity not only supports the delivery of timely and accurate results to patients and physicians, it also protects patient data.

With the ability to monitor antibody testing trends, users can adjust staffing and workflow according to their testing volumes. Labs can quantify the number of samples processed the first time - even when HIT interference is present, giving them the ability to spot negative trends in order to take action. With the VITROS COVID-19 Performance Dashboard, users have access to data that will give them a better understanding of the virus, including its impact on their lab and hospital, to adjust accordingly. With signal to cut off values, labs can see the separation between positive and negative results, giving them confidence in their results. The VITROS COVID-19 Performance Dashboard assisting users in their quest to improve laboratory efficiency and decision support while providing the best care for their patients and staff.

IN Addition, Ortho demonstrated how laboratories can contribute to patient blood management initiatives by minimizing impact of common interferences amongst other challenges. The company also exhibited its broad menu of high-performing assays that are optimized to meet the changing testing needs of laboratories.
