Validation of the Sysmex CS5100 coagulation analyzer and comparison to the Stago STA-R analyzer for routine coagulation parameters

Summary Introduction The CS 5100 analyzer (Sysmex) was validated for the determination of routine coagulation parameters. This fully automated coagulation analyzer uses multiple wavelength technology to perform coagulation (e.g., activated partial thromboplastin time – APTT , prothrombin time – PT , fibrinogen – FBG ), chromogenic (e.g., antithrombin – AT ) and immunological (e.g., D‐dimers – DD i) assays. Methods A comparison with the currently...
