Siemens Healthineers (Erlangen, Germany) is presenting its newest innovations at WorldLab–EuroMedLab Roma 2023 that aim to help deliver high-value care, and confidently provide the answers expected by clinicians and patients. A team of company experts is demonstrating innovations and trends in clinical diagnostics and point-of-care testing at the industry event.

On display at the Siemens booth are the company’s two new solutions for high-volume hematology testing, the Atellica HEMA 570 Analyzer and the Atellica HEMA 580 Analyzer. Both hematology analyzers offer integrated automation and intelligence to eliminate barriers that hamper workflow efficiency and deliver faster patient results. The Atellica HEMA 570 and Atellica HEMA 580 Analyzers have a throughput of up to 120 tests per hour and feature user-friendly designs that significantly reduce time-consuming daily maintenance and support rapid reagent changes.

The Atellica HEMA 570 and Atellica HEMA 580 Analyzers adopt advanced data management capabilities to eliminate the expertise gap and empower staff of all skill levels during result interpretations. In order to save time and provide physicians with information more quickly, normal results that do not violate pre-established criteria are released directly into a laboratory information system using the analyzers' rules-based auto-validation capability. Abnormalities are flagged and coded on the basis of severity to provide a clear indication of which patient samples need closer attention from the technician. In case results require follow-up actions like dilutions or slide reviews, standardized guidance is displayed to ensure that staff performs the next steps in accordance with lab protocols.

"We hear from labs that they need agility, reliability, and speed," said Sharon Bracken, Head of Diagnostics, Siemens Healthineers. "The Atellica HEMA analyzers combine workflow improvements with demonstrated technology to bring hematology testing into the future. We're delivering the breakthroughs labs need to produce quality patient results faster."
