COMPARISON OF URISED 2 FULLY AUTOMATED URINE ANALYZER TO MANUAL URINE MICROSCOPY

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 5

Abstract

Introduction: Urinalysis is one of the most commonly performed test in the clinical laboratory. Urine screening is achieved by either automated or manual microscopic analysis. The objective of this study was to compare the results of fully automated urine analyzer to manual urine microscopy. Material and Method : A total of 200 urine samples were analyzed by Urised 2 fully automated urine analyzer and manual method and the results were compared. Result : The sensitivity for RBC was 89.2% , specificity was 93.3% respectively. The sensitivity for WBC was 86% , specificity was 91% in the study conducted on 200 urine sample. Conclusion: The use of automated device in urinalysis is a good practice as it showed good compatibility to manual microscopy. However in order to avoid any error or uncertainity it requires careful evaluation and some images have to be analyzed by manual microscopic examination.
