| Abstract | ||
| This study was performed on twenty normal females in order to assess the accuracy of (Sysmex automated hematology analyzer KX-21N) for estimation of red blood cell count (RBCs). Two processes were used for this evaluation, the first is by calculating the systematic error to determine the accuracy of this device by comparison with the standard method and the second process is by testing the random error or reproducibility of the device. The results of this study indicate that values of RBCs count measured by Sysmex automated analyzer were slightly higher than that measured by the standard methods, although they were statistically not significant. The results of the random error which was improved by the statistical equation : (2 SD/mean × 100%) indicate that the Sysmex automated hematology analyzer was accurate and reproducible and can be used in routine service and research. | ||
