Automated flow cytometry compared with an automated dipstick reader for urinalysis.
Recently, the Sysmex UF-100 flow cytometer was developed to automate urinalysis. We compared UF-100 test results with those of an automated dipstick reader. A cross-check of UF-100, dipstick, and microscopic sediment data was performed in 1001 urine samples. Good agreements (P <0.001) were obtained between UF-100 and dipstick data for erythrocytes (r = 0.636) and leukocytes (r = 0.785). Even in...
متن کاملThe comparison of automated urine analyzers with manual microscopic examination for urinalysis automated urine analyzers and manual urinalysis
OBJECTIVES Urinalysis is one of the most commonly performed tests in the clinical laboratory. However, manual microscopic sediment examination is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and lacks standardization in high-volume laboratories. In this study, the concordance of analyses between manual microscopic examination and two different automatic urine sediment analyzers has been evaluated. DESIGN...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of UriSed automated urine microscopic sediment analyzer and dipstick parameters in predicting urine culture test results
INTRODUCTION Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common types of infection. Currently, diagnosis is primarily based on microbiologic culture, which is time- and labor-consuming. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of urinalysis results from UriSed (77 Electronica, Budapest, Hungary), an automated microscopic image-based sediment analyzer, in predicting posit...
متن کاملAutomated urinalysis and urine dipstick in the emergency evaluation of young febrile children.
OBJECTIVE The performance of automated flow cytometric urinalysis is not well described in pediatric urinary tract infection. We sought to determine the diagnostic performance of automated cell counts and emergency department point-of-care (POC) dipstick urinalyses in the evaluation of young febrile children. METHODS We prospectively identified a convenience sample of febrile pediatric emerge...
متن کاملPerformance Characteristics of Dipstick and Microscopic Urinalysis for Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Infection
Aim: Although the urine culture is used as the reference standard to determine presence or absence of urinary tract infection, the culture is an expensive and time-consuming method. The objectives of the study were to compare dipstick urinalysis with microscopic urinalysis and to compare dipstick and microscopic urinalysis results with urine culture results, by calculating performance character...
