CS-2100i - Advanced coagulation testing designed with you in

mind
If you have a large lab with high coagulation analysis throughput and rely on the quality of your results - at all times this is a great solution. The CS-2100i is a fully automated blood coagulation analyser that analyses large sample volumes
at high productivity rates. Thanks to advanced technology like multi-wavelength detection and four analysis methods
it offers superb accuracy. And like all Sysmex devices, it is backed by some of the industrys leading knowledge and
support.
Alongside the technical specs, we focused specifically on your needs when developing the CS-2100i. We used your
feedback and our knowhow to improve your experience in four areas:
* Sample management
* Operation of the system
* Reagent management
* Troubleshooting support

Quality matters pre-analytical sample integrity helps

Pre-analytical issues can account for as much as 70% of a clinical laboratorys errors. Multi-wavelength scanning and
sample liquid-sensing technologies detect unsuitable specimens. A pre-analytical sample integrity check tests for
interfering substances in the sample haemolysis, icterus, lipaemia at three wavelengths: 405 nm, 575 nm and 660 nm.
In addition, a primary tube sample volume check provides assistance by identifying potential inaccuracies caused by
improper sample collection, which can result in an incorrect ratio of anticoagulant to patient plasma.
Under specific conditions, the CS-2100i will automatically use the optimal wavelengths to ensure result accuracy in the
presence of hemolysis, icterus or lipemia. This minimises the need for retesting and helps you deliver the highest quality
results on your first test run.

Multi-wave detection - reduce your repeat tests

Using a multi-wave detection system, the CS-2100i can simultaneously measure multiple parameters using four different

measurement methods: coagulation, chromogenic, immunoassay and aggregation. The systems photo-optical clot
detection means you have several advantages compared to mechanical detection.

* You can measure light transmittance over the entire course of clot formation, not just the end.
* You can identify atypical reaction patterns easily and so determine the correct coagulation reaction result for
your patients with unusual in vitro clot reactions such as sepsis and DIC.
* The clotting reactions display the complete clot signature, not just a single data point, so that you get far more
detailed test information and therefore better clinical utility.

Used on a single platform, the broad range of assays allows high test throughput up to 180 samples per hour.

Cap piercing technology

The cap piercing technology used on the CS-2100i is a third-generation technology. It is backed by decades of experience
in laboratories around the world to provide the best user experience we can. There are two major benefits with devices
that use cap-piercing technology: clearly there is absolutely no physical interaction with biohazardous material, and
there is a significantly reduced risk of airborne infections.

Advanced, cooled reagent system flexible and cost-efficient

In the CS-2100i, we have critically addressed the usability of our coagulation analysers based on extensive input from
users and our own knowhow. One of the results is our new, cooled reagent system.
Reagent racks are now placed in a double-ring reagent table capable of handling a total of 40 reagent bottles maintained
at 10C. The bottles are slightly tilted to reduce dead volume and reagent waste and maximize the number of tests per
vial. One position on each reagent rack can stir reagents so you can use reagents that require continuous mixing.
Together with a onboard capacity of 1000 cuvettes you can achieve a long walk-away time. To reduce the risk of errors,
there is an optional automatic quality control when vials are changed.
Overall, the CS-2100i can potentially cut your costs by optimizing the use of our reagents. You can maximise the number
of tests per vial through tilting and greater stability thanks to cooling and reduced evaporation. This is enhanced further
through automatic rerun, reflex testing and continuous reagent loading.

Automatic analysis and automatic reflex testing

Abnormal samples turn up in every laboratory. The CS-2100i deals with them quickly and efficiently. All samples whose
data exceed the laboratorys pre-set limits are automatically reanalysed with or without redilution. Youll notice this
significantly streamlines the workload to identify and reanalyse abnormal samples. Reagents, samples and cuvettes are
loaded continuously for uninterrupted processing.
User definable reflex and rerun testing is initiated as soon as the test results exceed the laboratorys pre-set limits. Again
this significantly cuts your workload. The CS-2100i will automatically perform another test or rerun the first test, with
or without redilution, and so provide further information on the abnormal samples. This delivers advanced analytical
capabilities for your laboratory.

Well connected and intuitive

The CS-2100i can be connected to the well-known SNCS, or Sysmex Network Communication System. This great service
lets you connect to our customer support centre for online support. Should ever the need arise, it will let you troubleshoot
questions or issues. Theres also an automatic abnormality check and a web information service.

We have designed the analysers software in such a way that it is easy and intuitive to use, and so have reduced training
requirements too. The enhanced help system, on board as standard, increases availability by showing intelligent
messaging, and if you want you can print a maintenance management checklist and so easily keep track of the
management tasks you still have to perform.
