摘要: Embodiments provide a tube retainer system, including: an outer body; a diaphragm having a circular opening; a valve including a valve head and a valve stem attached to the valve head; a cam; a camshaft extending through the cam; a drive gear attached to the camshaft; a restraint gear attached to the camshaft; a push bar located below the diaphragm; and a pawl. The diaphragm, the cam, the drive gear, the restraint gear, the push bar, and the pawl are all provided in the outer body, when a bottom of a tube is inserted into the circular opening and a downward pressure is applied on the diaphragm, the cam is oriented to close the valve to form a partial vacuum in the outer body to secure the bottom of the tube within the circular opening.

摘要: Methods of early real-time detection or prediction of aspiration faults in an automated diagnostic analysis system include an artificial intelligence algorithm configured to use either cluster analysis or probabilistic graphical modeling based on an aspiration pressure measurement signal waveform. Aspiration faults may include short-volume aspiration and unwanted gel pick-up. These methods may allow for timely termination of an aspiration process so as to avoid or minimize possible detrimental downstream consequences such as faulty sample test results and/or instrument downtime for servicing and cleanup. Apparatus for early real-time detection or prediction of aspiration faults are provided as are other aspects.

摘要: Methods of predicting failures of in vitro diagnostic instruments include monitoring, with one or more monitoring devices associated with one or more components of the in vitro diagnostic instrument, one or more condition-based maintenance (CBM) parameters of the in vitro diagnostic instrument, providing the one or more condition-based maintenance parameters to a local database, transmitting condition-based maintenance data to a remote service location, storing the condition-based maintenance data at the remote service location, analyzing the condition-based maintenance data according to a failure prediction engine including failure prediction criteria, and performing an action based on predefined deviation from the failure prediction criteria. Apparatus configured to carry out the methods are provided, as are other aspects.

摘要: A method of operating a diagnostic instrument includes illuminating an imaging location of the diagnostic instrument with first light having a first spectrum for a first period and capturing a first image of the imaging location illuminated by the first light. The method further includes illuminating the imaging location of the diagnostic instrument with second light having a second spectrum for a second period, the second spectrum being more destructive to a chemical configured to be received in the diagnostic instrument than the first spectrum; and capturing a second image of the imaging location illuminated by the second light. Other methods and diagnostic instruments are disclosed.

摘要: A method of characterizing a specimen and specimen container to be analyzed in an automated diagnostic analysis system. The method can provide a segmentation determination and/or an HILN determination (hemolysis, icterus, lipemia, or normal) of the specimen while protecting patient information. The method includes capturing an image of a specimen container via an image capture device, identifying a label affixed to the specimen container in the captured image via an anonymization network, and editing the captured image via the anonymization network to mask some or all information present in the label so that it is removed from the captured image. Quality check modules and systems configured to carry out the method are also described, as are other aspects.
