Is less labor intensive, increases productivity, increases technical expertise, he should be in position to verify controls, confirm the automatic findings, LAB can be run on Lean a Principles of Management
Contributes to greater reliability of staff,well recommended |

IRIS 900 UdxSysmex uf-100 |
The arbitration of these instruments with manual microscopy favored each instrument nearly the same, there for the authors agree that both the concerned instruments are nearly the same and are substantially reliable and therefore could be used clinically. |

Sysmex UF-100 |
In conclusion dip stick testing combined with computer assisted UF-100 sieving system may lead to an clinically acceptable urine analysis,
UF-100 analyzer is not a substitute for microscopic sediment examination |

Lab UMat-Uri Sed, H800-FUS 100 with manual microscopy, |
The two devices showed similar performances, they were time saving in the form of standardized technique, especially for reducing pre analytical errors such as study time, centrifugation and specimen volume for sedimentary analysis, however the automated systems are still inadequate for classifying cells that are present in pathological urinary specimens |

The popular approach would be to combine test strips with UFC A for primary screening, it states that expert system now exisists combining both test modalities based on user definable decision rules |

The 2 automated instruments demonstrated Good Concordance with Each Other in Urine Sediment Examination .The automated process could be used as a screening procedure but some manual microscopy will be necessary |

The identification of dysmorphic erythrocytes and casts is consistent, the sub classification of casts require well trained technicians .The automated instruments -classification of particles was least reliable for yeasts and bacterial cocci |

3 automated systems with manual sediment analysis |
Automated systems had their deficiency with respect to reference, a, the difference in manual methodology was from person to person but classification and equal technical experience will play a role in uniformity of reporting |

(EQUAS)For the urinary sediment an Italian experience crb 2007 |
In 6 years 72 images, 144 photographs and each of the same elements to the same laboratory twice were compared |
Limitation one picture with a single element which is not a standard protocol followed for routine examination the current technique was useful in continual improvement of urinary sediment exam Quality |

Urine analysis : Core Curriculum 2008 |
Automated analysis of urine sediment of both techniques involving image analysis using digital software and flow cytometry technology using scatter grams and numeric data, both these instrument have been flagging acceptable results for Rbcs, squamous epithelial cells, some variants of crystals and casts, bacteria and yeast cells, sperms, however they do not recognize particles of nephrological importance such as eg far too many false negative casts |
These fully automated machines can be used in laboratories to screen large numbers of mostly normal samples for a short period of time .in the others opinion this approach is not adequate for renal patients for whom manual microscopy combined with motivated well educated examiner represents the gold standards |
