ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of IQ200 urine sediment quantitative analyzer(IQ200) and Mejer700 urine dry chemistry analyzer(Mejer700) in detecting urine erythrocyte(RBC)and leukocyte(WBC) .Methods The WBC and RBC in 1 000 u‐rine specimens were detected by using IQ200 ,Mejer700 and sediment microscopy respectively .Taking sediment microscopy as the golden standard ,the sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy of IQ200 and Mejer700 in detecting urine RBC and WBC were analysed .Re‐sults No statistically significant differences of positive rates of RBC and WBC detected by using the three methods were found (P>0 .05) .When IQ200 and Mejer700 were combined ,the sensitivities of detection of RBC and WBC test were improved .Conclu‐sion The sensitivities of RBC and WBC detection by using IQ200 and Mejer700 are high .Combing the two methods the sensitivity and accuracy is higher ,which could improve work efficiency .Combination of the three methods should be recommended ,in order to improve the quality of urine analysis .
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the consistency of the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer,Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer and optical microscope in detecting urine erythrocyte.Methods The fresh urine specimens from 427 patients were randomly extracted and tested by the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer,urine dry chemistry analyzer and OLUMPUS Arkray AX-4030 optical microscope.Then the consistency of the results for detecting urine erythrocyte was compared among three kinds of detection method.Results With the microscopic examination as control,the sensitivity and spe-cificity of the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer for detecting urine erythrocyte were 82.84% and 86.35% re-spectively,which of the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer were 89.55% and 83.96% respectively.There was a high consistency between the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the optical microscope for detecting urine e-rythrocyte and the Kappa value was 0.580.There was also a high consistency between the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer and the optical microscope for detecting urine erythrocyte and the Kappa value was 0.625,while the consistency between the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer was weaker and the Kappa value was 0.324.Conclusion With the detection by the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer as a screening test,it should need to combine with the optical microscopy to conduct recheck for providing the effective and reliable test results quickly and accurately.
