Evaluation of Sysmex XT-4000i automated hematology analyzer in count and classification of neonatal leukocytes / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of Sysmex XT-4000i automated hematology analyzer on neonatal leukocytes count and classification results.Methods 213 cases of neonatal blood specimens were analyzed respectively by Sysmex XT-4000i automated hematology analyzer and microscope counting and staining of two categories of methods.Results The instrument that immature granulocyte,primitive cell,shift to the left,three kind of tip in any one or more specimens have 112,accounted for 52.58% (112/213),and staining immature cell or shift to the left of the specimens was 91,accounted for 42.72% (91/213).The instrument to nucleated erythrocyte specimens were 109,accounting for 51.17% (109/213),and staining of nucleated erythrocyte were 66,accounting for 30.99% (66/213).Classify or classification of incomplete instrument failed to leukocytes were 11,ac-counting for 5.16% (11/213).When the specimens without nucleated erythrocytes interference or the number of nucleated eryth-rocytes is low [≤ 10/100 white blood cells(WBC)],Instruments on leukocyte count and manual counting results,there was not statistically significant differences between the two groups(P >0.05 ),when the sample number of nucleated erythrocytes (>10/100 WBC),When the specimens were nucleated erythrocyte number for a long time(>10/100 WBC),Instruments on leukocyte count and manual counting results,there was significant difference between the two groups(P <0.05).Correlation analysis on the instrument detection and manual dyeing classification of leukocytes,neutrophils,lymphocytes,monocytes,eosinophils,basophils, the correlation coefficient is respectively 0.95,0.93,0.78,0.86,0.14.Conclusion Some errors exist in Sysmex XT-4000i auto-mated hematology analyzer to count and classification of leukocytes.On neonatal blood tests should be carried out at the same time man-ual microscopy,and on the basis of nucleated erythrocytes were corrected,to ensure the clinical blood routine reporting results.
