Siemens Healthineers and Sysmex Corporation have begun distributing independently their combined wide hemostasis testing portfolio to laboratories in the United States and Europe1 under each company’s respective own brands, offering healthcare providers streamlined access to leading hemostasis testing solutions that support several conditions and disease states patients face. Hemostasis testing is most often used to help identify and monitor bleeding and clotting disorders.
Newly integrated into the Siemens Healthineers portfolio are the CN-3000/6000,2 CS-2500, CS-5100, and CA-600 series systems under the Siemens Healthineers brand. Supporting hemostasis testing needs for high-, mid-, and low-volume testing, the proven systems are designed to accelerate testing and streamline workflows, whether stand-alone or connected to lab automation.3 Through integration with the Siemens Healthineers Atellica Diagnostics IT products, labs can centralize visibility and control over hemostasis testing processes to automatically manage repeat testing, integrate quality control processes, and improve key performance indicators such as turnaround time with built-in analytics. For lab networks with multiple locations and hemostasis analyzers, testing with hemostasis systems from Siemens Healthineers enables labs to produce standardized results across sites with excellent result correlation. These hemostasis testing systems join the broader in vitro diagnostics portfolio Siemens Healthineers provides, which includes chemistry, immunoassay, urinalysis, hematology, automation, and IT solutions.
“Today laboratories are confronted with a variety of operational and administrative tasks, and staff shortages require maximum productivity to be able to deliver test results for patients,” said Robert Stowers, executive vice president and head of the Specialty Lab Solutions business for Diagnostics, Siemens Healthineers. “Through our collaborative agreement with Sysmex, both companies now offer a proven portfolio of hemostasis testing instruments and assays, which complement unique portfolio offerings that will greatly benefit laboratories worldwide.”
Siemens Healthineers and Sysmex have built a solid partnership over 25 years, together becoming one of the leading solution providers in the global hemostasis segment. In February 2023, with the aim of providing broader and more effective hemostasis laboratory solutions to customers worldwide, the companies established an agreement to distribute their combined hemostasis portfolio, globally and individually, under their respective company names, in combination with their own wider portfolios of products and services.
