The modular system combines high-throughput analysis with a flexible footprint to enhance workflow efficiency in busy laboratories.
Sysmex has introduced the CN-9000, a hemostasis automation solution designed to address the workflow challenges of high-volume clinical laboratories and those with limited staffing. The CN-9000 streamlines routine and specialty hemostasis testing with high-throughput processing and scalability. Labs may run the CN-9000 solution on its own or connect it to a compatible total laboratory automation line.
The modular design supports up to three CN-3000 TM or CN-6000 TM Automated Blood Coagulation Analyzers, processing up to 1,000 samples per hour. Its architecture leverages universal components from Sysmex’s established XN-Series TM hematology and UF-Series TM urinalysis platforms, bringing the company’s recognized automation expertise to the hemostasis bench.
“The CN-9000 Automated Hemostasis Solution is built for the demands of modern laboratories by delivering compact, scalable automation that enhances workflow efficiency, staff utilization, and ultimately, laboratory performance,” says Katy Richards, group manager, hemostasis portfolio at Sysmex.
Key Features and Benefits
The CN-9000 is engineered to provide walkaway operation while ensuring result accuracy and sample integrity. Its features are designed to optimize lab resources and improve turnaround times.
- Scalable Throughput: By connecting up to three analysis modules, the system allows labs to scale testing capacity to meet growing demands.
- Flexible Footprint: Optional turn unit modules allow for 90° configurations, enabling labs to customize the system layout to fit constrained floor space.
- Walkaway Automation: Continuous sample loading with cap piercing, plus automated repeat, redilute, and reflex testing, minimizes manual intervention and frees staff for other critical tasks.
- Preanalytical Quality Control: Integrated Preanalytical Sample Integrity (PSI TM) checks automatically assess sample quality to reduce the risk of errors and costly reruns.
- Accurate Results: Simultaneous multiwavelength technology ensures accurate measurements for a wide range of hemostasis assays.
