Performance evaluation of platelet counting of Abbott Alinity hq and Sysmex XN-9000 automated hematology analyzer compared with international reference method

摘要

Introduction Accurate platelet counting is essential for risk assessment of bleeding and thrombosis. Abbott Alinity hq hematology analyzer was recently introduced, and its performance in platelet counting has yet to be evaluated comprehensively. In this study, we evaluated the performance of the optical platelet counting of Abbott Alinity hq (Alinity-PLT) and the impedance and fluorescent platelet counting of Sysmex XN-9000 (XN-PLT-I and XN-PLT-F) compared with the international reference method.
