HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- <\/p>\n
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is showcasing its latest innovations that unite clinical and workflow excellence to help laboratories Test smarter. Run faster. at the 2013 AACC and ASCLS Annual Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo in Houston, July 28 August 1 (Booth #3449). This years exhibit visually recreates the various clinical environments in which Siemens proven solutions can be found, including the central, microbiology, and molecular lab, emergency department, intensive care unit (ICU) and physicians office\/clinic. <\/p>\n
Whether conducted in a lab, a doctors office or even at a patients bedside, clinical diagnostic testing will continue to increase in importance for optimizing patient care, especially in light of increasing pressure on healthcare systems, said Michael Reitermann, CEO, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics. At this years AACC, Siemens is proud to demonstrate how we are leveraging our scientific, technological and business acumen to meet our customers needs from a workflow and clinical perspective. <\/p>\n
Central Laboratory Solutions <\/p>\n
Siemens AACC 2013 presence once again highlights the companys pioneering advances in central laboratory automation, including the unveiling of the VersaCellX3 Solution1, a unique sample management solution for low and medium volume labs that increases flexibility and advances workflow capabilities for up to three connected Siemens analyzers. Using advanced robotics with dynamic STAT management for the optimal mix of chemistry and\/or immunoassay analytics along with one-touch sample management, the VersaCell X3 Solution enables labs to streamline a non-automated environment without the resource requirements of track-based automation. For the higher volume market, the Siemens Aptio Automation1 unified solution helps address the changing workload and expanding needs of todays growing clinical laboratory, while delivering innovation for better patient care. <\/p>\n
Leadership in the central lab innovation extends to Siemens IT platforms, including the CentraLink Data Management System1, which displays clinical data and manages workflow across multiple disciplines and platforms, including the VersaCell X3 Solution and Aptio Automation. Attendees are also learning how the new syngo Lab Inventory Manager2 leverages cloud-based technology to streamline and automate the inventory management process. Additionally, information is available about how Siemens Remote Service for Diagnostics provides proactive customer support by optimizing system performance to enhance lab efficiency. <\/p>\n
Multiple Siemens central lab instruments and assays are also highlighted including the compact, fully automated SysmexCA-660 System1,3 for hemostasis testing, along with the random access high-volume SysmexCS-5100 System1,3,4 coagulation analyzer, which enables first-run accuracy by identifying and managing unsuitable test specimens prior to analysis. Visitors are also getting a closer look at the CellaVisionDM96 Digital Morphology System1,5, used for automated blood cell microscopy analysis, and accessing the companys robust test menu via touch screens. Featured assays include the IMMULITE2000 Systems Anti-CCP IgG assay1 for rheumatoid arthritis, ADVIACentaur Vitamin D Total assay1,6 and Dimension VistaLOCIVitamin B12 assay1. <\/p>\n
Emergency Room and ICU Solutions <\/p>\n
Nearby in the Emergency Department\/ICU, Siemens spotlights several of its latest near-patient critical care testing solutions, including the RAPIDLab348EX Blood Gas System1,4, a cost-effective blood gas analyzer for smaller labs that generates reliable results in approximately 60 seconds with a minimum of operator interaction. Steps away is the StratusCS Analyzer1, which delivers quantitative cardiac assays for fast patient evaluation, along with the RAPIDPoint500 Blood Gas System1 with the newly available pleural fluid pH test1. <\/p>\n
