Sažetak
Introduction: The aim of this study was to perform a comprehensive verification of a 6-part differential haematology analyser Siemens Advia 2120i (Erlangen, Germany), prior to its routine implementation. Materials and methods: Our verification protocol included: precision (within- and between-run), estimated bias (%) as measure of trueness, which was calculated from observed and manufacturers’ declared value, analytical measuring interval (AMI), carryover, confirmation of a limit of blank (LoB), determination of a limit of detection (LoD) and limit of quantitation (LoQ). The K2 ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) patients’ leftover samples were used for verification of analyser Advia 2021i. Acceptance criteria were based on manufacturer technical specifications (Siemens), 2016 state-of-the-art criteria (Vis and Huisman), and EFLM Biological Variation Database. Results: The within- and between-run precision were acceptable for all parameters and the lowest coefficients of variation were observed for mean corpuscular volume (MCV) (0.3% and 0.6%, respectively). Estimated bias was within the acceptance criteria for all parameters except for MCV (the estimated bias was 2.2% (acceptance criteria 2.0%). AMI was confirmed for all tested parameters (r > 0.99). The carryover estimates ranged from 0.1% for platelet count (Plt) to 0.6% for red blood cell count and were within the manufacturers’ specifications (≤ 1%). Manufacturers’ claims for LoB were confirmed for leukocytes, erythrocytes, haemoglobin, and platelets. The estimated LoD and LoQ were 0.05 x109 /L and 0.1 x109 /L for white blood cell count, while for Plt values were 2 x109 /L and 3 x109 /L, respectively. Conclusions: Analytical performance of the Siemens Advia 2120i meets predefined quality goals and is suitable for routine use in a clinical laboratory.
