Using preanalytical sample integrity (PSI) technology, the Sysmex CS-2000i System provides extra operator support by identifying and automatically managing potentially problematic test samples prior to analysis. To further maximize workflow, intuitive user-defined software automatically handles results based on user-defined criteria.

The system’s simultaneous multi-wavelength analytical scanning uses up to five different wavelengths to analyze clotting reactions: 340, 405, 575, 660 and 800 nm. The intelligent system design not only reduces the need for visual reads; it also selects the optimal wavelength to reduce the effect of interfering substances. The wide optical spectrum enables measurement of light transmittance over the entire course of the clot formation, not just the end. Thus, atypical reaction patterns can be easily identified to aid in determining the correct coagulation reaction result for patients with unusual in vitro clot reactions such as sepsis or DIC.
