| Popis: | Objective: The examination of the urine remains to be one of the most commonly performed tests in laboratory practice. Currently, laboratories also need to accredit their urine diagnostics by comparing their measurement methods to acceptable references. In this study we compared particle counts obtained by new generation automated technique, image capture analysis (IQ-200) with those of a standardized chamber counts. Design and Methods: The same 258 urine samples from different departments of a hospital assayed by IQ-200 were analyzed in parallel with the KOVA cell chamber system. Clinically significant discrepancy results (positive vs. negative) for red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) were also compared with those obtained by dipstick testing. Results: There was a good agreement between the automated system and sediment microscopy for RBCs, WBCs, and squamous epithelial cells (SCs) (r=0.90; r=0.80; r=0.72, respectively: P |
