A comparative assessment of the glucose monitor (SD Codefree) and auto analyzer (BT-3000) in measuring blood glucose concentration among diabetic patients.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of this study was to determine how well the measurements from a glucometer (SD Codefree) correlated with those from a standard auto analyser (BT-3000) using blood samples from diabetic and non-diabetic patients at the Bolgatanga Regional Hospital in Ghana. A cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 150 randomly selected patients; 100 diabetic patients (4 type 1 and 96 type II) and 50 non diabetic patients. Ante-cubital venous and finger pricked blood samples were obtained from the patients following standard procedures, and blood glucose concentrations were determined using the two methods respectively.

Results

Data generated was entered and analysed using SPSS version 20. The mean glucose concentration for the diabetic patients (n = 100) using the glucometer were not significantly different from that of the auto analyser (10.16 ± 3.708 mmol/L vs. 9.458 ± 3.204 mmol/L, p = 0.154), though the glucometer generally overestimated the glucose concentration. Similarly, readings for non-diabetics were comparable between the two methods (5.286 ± 0.477 mmol/L vs. 5.092 ± 0.525 mmol/L, p = 0.057). The correlation between the two methods was good and highly significant (r = 0.862, p < 0.001) with both methods depicting high sensitivity and specificity in measuring blood glucose levels among diabetics as indicated by the ROC curve.

Project description:Manual methods of blood glucose monitoring are labor-intensive, costly, prone to error, and expose the caregiver to blood. The VIA(R) blood chemistry monitor for glucose can automatically measure plasma glucose (PG) every 5 minutes for 72 hours using blood sampled from a peripheral vein/artery or a central vein.VIA performance was evaluated in eight normal and five type 1 diabetic (T1DM) subjects in 15 separate experiments. The VIA device was connected to a peripheral vein and reported a PG value every 5 minutes during each 510-minute experiment. Blood samples were collected manually every 10 minutes and assayed using a HemoCue(R) beta-glucose analyzer (HC). Whole blood HC measurements were corrected to PG values. Paired HC/VIA measurements (n = 717) were analyzed.Mean PG was 90 +/- 14 and 96 +/- 12 mg/dl in normal subjects and 194 +/- 64 and 173 +/- 48 mg/dl in T1DM subject as measured by the HC and VIA, respectively. Clark error grid analysis revealed 86% points in zone A, 11% points in zone B, and 2% points in zone D. Linear regression analysis yielded the following equation: VIA = 0.732 x HC + 30.5 (r(2) = 0.954). Residual analysis revealed a glucose-dependent bias between the HC and the VIA. VIA data were transformed using the linear regression equation to correct for bias. After the correction, the mean absolute relative difference between the VIA and the HC was less than 10%, and 99.6% of data were in zones A and B. The VIA was able to sample blood automatically every 5 minutes for more than 8 hours in the laboratory setting. On average, the VIA reported glucose values for 94% of the samples it attempted to obtain.This study demonstrated that the VIA blood chemistry monitor for glucose can reliably sample blood frequently for a prolonged period of time safely and effectively in diabetic and nondiabetic volunteers. Agreement between the two devices was the closest at normal glucose concentrations. After correcting for a glucose-dependent bias between the devices, the MARD was consistently less than 10% for all glucose ranges.

Project description:BackgroundMindray's newly developed BC-7500 CRP auto hematology analyzers can simultaneously measure the routine blood and C-reactive protein (CRP) results, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and quality of clinical examination. This study was designed to evaluate the basic performance of the BC-7500 CRP as well as the performance characteristics of the new measurement mode combines routine blood and CRP.MethodsVenous whole blood samples with the anticoagulant ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid K2 (EDTA-K2) were collected at the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital according to the guidelines of the American Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and International Standards Committee for Hematology (ISCH). We analyzed and evaluated the performance of blank counts, carryover contamination rate, precision, comparability, flagging capability, sample stability, and automatic micro-whole blood (MWB) mode analysis in the BC-7500 CRP hematology analyzer.ResultsAll parameters measured by the BC-7500 CRP showed good blank counts (CRP, 0.008-0.02 mg/L). The carryover contamination rates for each mode combination did not exceed 1%, it indicates a low carryover effect. The CRP showed high precision while the within-laboratory precision is 6.91% and 4.38% in two different levels. Relatively good correlation was found for the routine blood results between the BC-7500 CRP and Sysmex-XN (r=0.99), and CRP result between the BC-7500 CRP and IMMAGE 800 (r=0.99). The sensitivities of abnormal cell flagging for Blast, Immature Gran, and nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) were 93.9%, 91.6%, and 86.7%, while their specificities were 83.9%, 62.7%, and 97.5%. The test results of CRP at room temperature for 24 hours and refrigerated for 48 hours were -0.04% and -2.94%, which showed very stable changes. Also, the automatic micro-whole blood mode performed well (P=0.2014), which was very close to the test results of the automatic mixing test of peripheral blood and the manual mixing of open sampling.ConclusionsThe BC-7500 CRP analyzer provided reliable results on routine blood and CRP, which can meet the testing requirements of routine blood and CRP items in clinical whole blood samples and provide a guarantee for rapid and accurate laboratory diagnosis.
