Eliminate Steps, Save Time
 
How much time do your technologists spend every day looking for samples to fulfill requests for add-on tests, perform repeats or answer questions about a result status? 
 
Sysmex WAM has been designed specifically for use with Sysmex instrument and automation solutions, allowing seamless integration with automation lines.  WAM helps to manage smear production with operator alerts if the slide maker/stainer fails to produce a smear.  Tracking the current tube location in real-time based on barcode reads, WAM makes it possible to easily find the last known location for each sample that it has processed.  Depending on the LIS capabilities, WAM can send an "in-lab receipt" message to eliminate another step in your process.
 
A respected industry observer, Robert Michel reports in the Dark Daily that healthcare reform changes could “significantly boost utilization of Hemoglobin A1c tests."   Is your lab ready to process the additional numbers of samples and procedures?  Discipline-specific rules mean WAM is scalable to include diabetes testing as part of your Sysmex configuration, extending labor savings to this potentially high volume procedure.
 
Sysmex WAM also integrates with our cell image analysis solutions to complete your journey to a paperless workflow system and digital hematology. 
  • Communicates rules actions to the automation to seamlessly manage its operations
  • Handles preflex and reflex orders automatically handled
  • Manages repeat and dilution instructions
  • Sorts and reroutes samples automatically when implemented with tube sorter
  • Reduces pre- and post-analytical sample handling
  • Tracks current location, projected route and archives storage location to reduce time spent looking for tubes
  • Displays smear production error information
  • Creates alerts and keeps audit trail for critical results that have been phoned
  • Makes in-lab receipt information and final storage location available for LIS (LIS dependent)
