Analytical Performance Evaluation of Automated Coagulation Analyzer CP3000 for Routine and Special Coagulation Assays

초록

CP3000 coagulation analyzer is a high-throughput, fully automated coagulation analyzer. The objective of this study was to evaluate the analytical performance of CP3000 coagulation system for general and special coagulation analyses. Quality control materials and patient samples were used to evaluate the analytical performance of CP3000 coagulation system. Precision, carryover, linearity, comparability with ACL-TOP 700 coagulation system, and verification of reference range were evaluated or performed according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines. Within-run and between-run precisions were below 5% for both normal and abnormal ranges. There was no detectable carryover. The linearity of antithrombin and fibrinogen were excellent. The comparability between CP3000 and ACL-TOP 700 coagulation systems was acceptable except for activated partial thromboplastin time and thrombin time due to differences in reagent composition. Reference ranges proposed by the manufacturer were verified to be acceptable. CP3000 coagulation system is a reliable system that can be used to perform routine and special coagulation tests rapidly and accurately. Because of its small footprint as an additional advantage, the implementation of CP3000 coagulation system can be efficient in hospital laboratories of various sizes.
