title: [The impact of blood smear preparation on effectiveness of functioning of Vision Hema--the digital system of automatic blood analysis].
abstract: The article deals with study of the impact of standardization of blood smears preparation on effectiveness of functioning of Vision Hema system. The analysis was applied to the results of counting of 200 leukocytes in 30 blood smears prepared from venous blood stabilized with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid using thoroughly degreased slide plates and applying automatic device to prepare blood smears (comparative group) and in 49 preparations prepared manually from non-stabilized capillary blood (control group). The standardization of the procedure of preparation of glass samples resulted in five time decrease of total amount of artifacts and in disappearance of thrombocytes aggregates and pavement epithelium cells. The absolute amount of destroyed leukocytes decreased in 2.4 times and particles of dirt in 9.5 time. The proposed technique of preparation of smear increased velocity of automatic analysis of leukogram by the Vision Hema system in 2 times and speeded up validation by physician of derived results in 3 times.
