[Evaluation of the Sysmex NE-8000 hematologic autoanalyzer].
The results of an evaluation of the Sysmex NE-8000 cell counter are reported. Good results were attained for all values of red and white cell counts. Platelet values were good as well, although samples with thrombocytosis were overstated to some extent. Fair results were found for the white-cell differential count concerning neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes, but false monocytosis were frequently seen in paediatric blood samples, whereas some monocytosis were undetected. The alarms for suspected pathology had only moderate sensitivity when used as the only criterion. The predictive value of such alarms was low, except for the "platelet clumps?" sign.
