A single system manages utilities for every instrument. This system provides access to power, modem, Ethernet, deionized water, city (tap) water, compressed air, and a line for waste, simplifying the impact to your facilities when connecting or changing instruments on the system.
Start by automating some or all of your existing processes. ADVIA LabCell is an open automation system that allows you to manage system life cycles and scale your automation budgets. Noninvasive interfaces accommodate a variety of proven instruments – like Clinitek Atlas, ADVIA Centaur XP, ADVIA 1800, ADVIA 2400, ADVIA 120, Diagnostica Stago STA-R – as well as new instruments or technology choices.
Each instrument can function independently from the track, allowing uninterrupted processing as well as enhancing system safeguards and reliability.
Sample tubes travel in a single tube carrier, not a rack. So, each tube travels its own route direct to the appropriate systems – and never blocks the flow of others. ADVIA LabCell enables repeat, reflex, and STAT testing without additional sample management. It even reduces – and for some laboratories eliminates – the need for aliquots. With ADVIA LabCell, you can focus on the results, not the process.
ADVIA LabCell utilizes a plug-and-play instrument interface approach. So, instrument updates, upgrades or additions are readily accommodated. You get more options and greater stability for your automation investment.
ADVIA CentraLink provides the data management functions between the ADVIA LabCell, all connected instruments, and the LIS. ADVIA CentraLink ensures contingency operations during temporary periods when your LIS is not functioning.
At the heart of every ADVIA automation solution system lies a superb data management system: ADVIA CentraLink. ADVIA CentraLink utilizes a single bi-directional communication link with your laboratory’s information system (LIS) and supports individual links with each instrument and with the ADVIA LabCell. It provides both network solutions and streamlined data processing.
The result: A patient-focused approach to result management that speeds answers while simplifying your processes and procedures.
Rules-based Decision Logic:
Allows review & edit by exception. Rules can include exceptions by user-definable ranges, delta-checking, QC (using Westgard rules), and instrument flags.
Repeat & Reflex Orders:
Can also be automatically generated and sent to the automation system and instruments based on user-defined criteria.
Automatic or Manual Comments:
User-defined criteria provide the ability to add comments to patient results either automatically or manually.
Seamless ADVIA LabCell/ADVIA WorkCell Communications:
Many LIS’s either require an update package or cannot support the duplicate communication required by automation systems. ADVIA CentraLink easily handles the need to download workorders to the ADVIA LabCell and respond to queries from the connected instruments.
Rapid Query Response:
The system provides a workorder buffer to meet the instrument query response constraints in an automated setting, thereby removing the problems associated with query response timeouts when the LIS is busy.
Simplified Network Link:
ADVIA CentraLink facilitates the installation of ADVIA LabCell by providing a simplified, standardized network solution. It utilizes a single LIS connection for ADVIA LabCell and up to 15 instruments while allowing access to consolidated results from all connected systems from any of up to 5 client workstations.
Secure Back-up for the LIS:
With order entry, patient reporting, data storage of up to 10,000 samples per connected instrument, and QC management capabilities, ADVIA CentraLink delivers the ability to continue laboratory operations even during LIS down times.
