XN-Series: adding values to standard parameter

NRBCs are directly measured with every CBC

CBC analysis with a linearity up to 600 NRBCs/100
WBCs

➢ Corrected WBCs are reported with high sensitivity and

specificity

➢ Elevated NRBC indicate an ineffective erythropoiesis

XN-Series: adding values to standard parameter

Immature granulocytes (IG), the 6th differential

population is a standard with every differential
DIFF analysis
Low WBC Mode is avaliablenew!

> IG as early indicators of inflammations and sepsis

> Low WBC mode is a dedicated mode for leucopenia samples (< 1,000/uL)

XN-Series: providing more clinical values

Providing Reticulocyte count together with

measurement of Reticulocytes Hemoglobin
equivalent (Ret-He)

➢ Differentiation of FID and IDA

➢ Monitoring iron therapy response in CKD (KDOQI 2006, NICE 2015)

XN-Series: providing more clinical values

Improved performance of PLT quantification in

critical thrombocytopenic range including the
enumeration of immature platelet fraction (IPF).

➢ CV below 5% for PLT < 20.000/uL Strong, Weak, only

especially cell
➢ Good correlation with CD41/61 within the
cell
membrane
Platelet RBC
fragment
➢ Support the differential diagnosis of thrombocytopenia and therapy

XN-Series: providing more clinical values

Specific flagging information for abnormal or

immature white cells (Blasts, Abn. Lymphocyte,
Atypical Lymphocyte)

➢ Giving more specific guidance to for clinical pathologist

XN-Series: not only blood samples

Available for 5 types of Body fluids with no

additional reagents (FDA Approved)

➢ No special treatment, fast and reliable

➢ Very useful in emergency medicine

Do we still need manual morphology analysis?

Yes, when there are 1 or more flagging message, manual analysis

is required for confirmation.

What are the challenges in manual morphology

analysis?

• Standardized good quality of smear

• Turn-around-time
• Morphology skills

A Good Quality Blood Smear

Copyright PT. Sysmex Indonesia
But What Actually Happens….

Consequences of Poorly Made Blood Smear

1. Incorrect distribution of leukocytes

2. Thick smears prevent identification
3. Thin smears contain broken cells

Not a true representative of patient which will lead to

poor patient outcome

XN-1500 helps to standardize the

blood smear while maintaining the
good quality of slides

SP-10 / SP-50 Technology

• Smear technology: wedge with adjusted angle based on HCT value from XN

• Staining technology: single / double staining which are compatible with common
staining agent

• New manual preparation function: prepare the smear manually and stain with
SP-10 / SP-50 with dedicated staining protocol

For example:
samples with high WBC need Smear
increased staining time manually

Sysmex Systematization Benefits

Automating
process removes
Standardization
manual errors by promoting
standardization, consistency
for better quality

Lab operates more efficiently

Efficiency
Clinical parameters that provide where staff can focus on other tasks
Informative
additional / early information
for better patient outcome

User definable rules for

Customization
rerun/reflex to make a slide and
staining protocols.

Additional analysers and licenses

can be added as the workload

Challenges in Morphology Analysis

Long Turn-Around-Time (TAT)

• Tedious workflow in the laboratory – time
High risk of Human Error consuming or reporting?
• Mis-labelling
Subjectivity of morphology analysis • Duration per morphology analysis: ± 5-10
mins
Varying morphology skills capability
• Unable
If not all slides can be reviewed on the same
to view the same cells
No standardization in the analysis Lack of traceability
day, it’ll be carried over to next day.. again
and again..

What if,
second opinion is needed?

Conclusions

• XN-1500 is a compact systematization solution to provide

standardization to the slide making and provide clinical values
on par with higher systematization system
• Modular concept provides solution with better flexibility and
more variety to meet customers with different needs
• DI-60 to achieve standardization in morphology analysis with
digital data archiving that allow e-consultation to experts and
better data management
