Evaluation of Automated Platelet Aggregation Test Using a Sysmex CS-5100 Analyzer

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: The platelet aggregation test is widely used to measure antiplatelet therapy response and to detect platelet function disorders. CS-5100 (Sysmex Co., Japan) is a recently introduced coagulation analyzer that can also measure platelet aggregation. We evaluated the performance of CS-5100 in the platelet aggregation test for use in clinical laboratories. Methods: We investigated the precision, stability, dilution test, and correlation of CS-5100 with a traditional aggregometer. Precision was tested using normal and patient samples. Stability was assessed over 5 different time points for 8 hours. The dilution test was performed with normal samples using ADP agonists. We tested correlations between the results of Chrono-log aggregometer (Chrono-Log Co., U.S.A) and CS-5100 using 10 samples with 5 agonists each. We also calculated the reference range of 5 agonists using 22-30 normal samples. Results: The coefficients of variation using normal samples were 7.45% and 3.27% for ADP and arachidonic acid, respectively. Stability was maintained for up to 2 hours in most samples. Dilution tests showed similar results until reaching a dilution factor of 2. Strong correlations of the results between Chrono-log and CS-5100 were found, except for ristocetin. The reference ranges of 5 reagents in CS-5100 were similar to those obtained with the Chrono-log aggregometer. Conclusions: The performance of CS-5100 in platelet aggregation tests showed reliable results compared to a traditional aggregometer. CS5100 can perform coagulation test and platelet aggregation test, simultaneously. Thus, CS-5100 can enable cost saving and reduce turn-aroundtime by reducing the inspection time.
