- Clinical labs face critical operational challenges that impede
productivity—more patient samples to test, staffing shortages, and
more documentation requirements.
- The Atellica CI Analyzer for immunoassay and clinical chemistry
testing aims to address labor shortage pain points and drive
revenue growth, fostering agility beyond standardization and
clinical equivalence.
- Workflow advancements help labs achieve more predictable
turnaround times, alleviate reporting burdens, and refocus staff
attention on critical lab operations.
The newest addition to the Siemens Healthineers Atellica in
vitro diagnostics portfolio, the Atellica CI Analyzer1 for
immunoassay and clinical chemistry testing, has received FDA
clearance and is now available in many of the world’s major
markets. Labs operating at low to medium testing volumes will
benefit from competitive advantages that the analyzer offers,
including improved turnaround time predictability, advanced
reporting functionality, and focused safety and security
measures.
Every lab, regardless of size, needs to tackle big challenges
resulting from labor shortages—from producing test results reliably
to enable predictable care, to protecting staff, securing data, and
reaching environmental goals. The Atellica CI Analyzer makes it
possible for both standalone labs and satellite labs of wider
health networks to have the same reagents, consumables, and
intelligent software as the company's flagship Atellica
Solution—now condensed into a 1.9 square meters footprint ideal for
smaller laboratories.
"Workflow standardization and clinical equivalence are critical
components of a successful laboratory operation within a health
network. The Atellica CI Analyzer elevates laboratory operations to
a new level of agility," said Sharon Bracken, head of Diagnostics
for Siemens Healthineers. "Labs today need testing instrumentation
and informatics that can easily keep pace with rapidly changing
testing demands as they occur. This next-generation laboratory
analyzer anticipates workflow bottlenecks, mitigates them
proactively, and delivers insights based on data that help
laboratory staff do their job more effectively and
efficiently."
CEO of Acibadem Labmed Clinic Laboratories and a Siemens
Healthineers customer, Dr. Mustafa Serteser explains, “For mid- or
low-volume sized laboratories, the Atellica CI Analyzer is a
best-in-class approach. Preservation of space in the lab, staff
allocation per analyzer, turnaround time, and cost-effective usage
of reagents are important and addressed with this analyzer.”
The Atellica CI Analyzer is engineered thoughtfully with
differentiating capabilities to leverage downtime and increase lab
efficiency and profitability. Random access sampling, micro-volume
aspiration, and automatic maintenance and quality control
scheduling enable labs to deliver more predictable sample
turnaround times. Chemistry and immunoassay engines run
independently so throughput is not compromised if one of the two
needs to stop.
Beyond delivering patient results, labs must address reporting
requirements, cybersecurity, and staff satisfaction goals. The
Atellica CI Analyzer comes equipped with the Atellica Laboratory
Evaluation Suite to deliver inspection-ready reports. This helps
labs meet accreditation guidelines without the need for
additional software and enables laboratory staff to refocus
their time on other critical lab operations. User authentication,
role-based authorizations, and audit trails are available for
increased security.
With a planned menu of more than 200 assays across 20 disease
states, each lab in a health network can choose the best tests for
its patient population to keep pace with demand and satisfy
clinical needs of patients that may otherwise go unmet. More than
50 key assays can deliver results in under 14 minutes.
