 CONFIDENCE

 

 

Enhance patient care and simplify the clinical chemistry process with:

six sigma quality assays

86% of Abbott's clinical chemistry assays achieve six sigma quality giving Abbott the highest proportion of six sigma assays

assay performance data aligned to latest clsi guidelines

Receive transparent assay performance specifications

consistent delivery of accurate test results2

"With Abbott Clinical Chemistry, laboratories can expect excellent or world-class performance"

-Sten Westgard, Westgard QC, Inc.

 

 

86% of Abbott’s Clinical Chemistry assays achieve Six Sigma quality, the highest proportion in the industry.

 Assay Productivity

 

 

Achieve consistent results and common user experience with:

ICT module

Avoid unnecessary expenses due to reduced operator interventions and decreased sample volume requirements

smartwash technology

minimize sample-to-sample carryover to 0.1 ppm, which reduces operator intervention and ensures confidence in results that influence patient care

Harmonized assays, instrumentation and automation

Achieve consistent, commutable results and user
experience across instrument platforms3

 Total value of           ownership

 
 

Optimize expenses, achieve workflow flexibility and reduce labor with:

reduced quality control frequency

avoid unnecessary expenses due to reduced operator
interventions and decreased sample volume requirements

automated calibration and quality control

experience workflow flexibility and labor savings with onboard calibrators and controls on the alinity ci-series that can run at intervals you choose

improved turnaround times

17% decrease in turnaround time demonstrated in a workflow analysis at Christus Health, a global healthcare system

Personalized solutions that maximize efficiencies and demonstrate true value

Our Total Value of Ownership (TVO) methodology gives you the power to broaden the scope of your laboratory's value by considering many factors that lead to hidden costs.
