Can we eliminate the need for STAT?

We know that clinical laboratories struggle with consistency in delivering results. One day laboratory test results are turned out in an hour; another day, it takes an hour and a half. Tests may be classified as STAT when they are needed urgently for immediate patient care. Beckman Coulter’s new total laboratory automation system, the DxA 5000, can help with these intractable challenges. By leveraging intelligent routing capabilities, the system differentiates STATs from routines to ensure each sample is appropriately prioritized.

Smart tube transit
Imagine you’re traveling a busy highway going from point A to point B. At night, it takes you 45 minutes. During the day, heavier traffic means it takes you 2 hours. An automation track in a laboratory may function in much the same way.

For instance, when there are relatively few tubes to process, test results can be delivered within 60 minutes. However, when there are 1,000 or more tubes on the line, it’s going to take longer—and worse, this traffic often makes it impossible for STAT samples to bypass routines. Unlike other automation systems, the DxA 5000 works hard, always prioritizing STAT samples over routines.

Beckman Coulter partners with Smart4Diagnostics
to reduce pre-analytical errors between blood collection and lab analysis

Thanks to the partnership with Smart4Diagnostics, Beckman Coulter will be able to close the preanalytical data gap between blood collection and laboratory analysis due to errors that take place before the sample arrives in the laboratory, such as sample collection, patient identification, sample handling, sample transportation, sample loss, etc.

For laboratories, errors mean extra work, increased operating costs and decreased productivity. Smart4Diagnostics created a data-driven preanalytical ecosystem.
From sample ordering to sample arrival, Smart4Diagnostics collects all relevant data-points to completely monitor sample workflow and conditions. By doing so, it is able to reduce preanalytical errors in real time while also improving the preanalytical workflow and quality of treatment.
