@lincolnreferencelab: Almost every instrument, every decision is guided by automation. This is important for many reasons but it completely removes any room for error. Here we see the DXA5000 in action as well as our track and Stockyard! #inaction #medicaltiktok #specimen #medicallaboratorytechnician #medicineexplained

calynnfromlab :

it’s BEAUTIFUL. unfortunately big machines = a lot of maintenance and repairs 😭

Danni Thoren :

As someone who uses one every single day. Respectful we named ours Richard. Why. Bc he doesn’t listen.

MetzliRayne :

Maintenance must be a PAIN

cartermoore726 :

As a student about to finish their bachelor’s in MLS I’d like to still have a job please 😂

WannabePunk :

at this point I'm just a mechanic. idk how they tricked me

soccerstar4007 :

this would be great of Beckman analyzers didn't break down every damn day

dumboy420 :

beckman coulter is about to automate lab technicians out of a job lol

justin.b1032 :

It’s absolutely amazing … until it breaks (my last lab usually had a broken centrifuge)

Ashley 🫠 :

Cries in Roche

Acentauri420 :

Okay but what % of the time is it actually working

Mya :

These probably perform better in a reference lab. I work in a level 2 trauma center. These are too maintenance heavy and the line is too slow for my lab. Also don't like that A1Cs can't be put in the stat wheel

Zinhle 🇿🇦|🇺🇸 :

Big analysers are a nightmare for QC. Especially when you’re running about 50 different Chemistry tests. 😭

ℜꑙℕ ℜꑙℕ :

I hate this thing so much 😭

Imène إيمان :

YeOldClamSlam :

We have Abbott, and our current stockyard holds 15,000 and we can only hold specimens for a max of 3 days. Our new setup is gonna hold 21,000, and we aren’t even a reference lab 😅

jhalstead1975 :

Big automation is never man less. One lab I am familiar with had 5 techs a shift manning the man less instrument which was Beckman Coulter…. Not a fan of Beckman

Stormy⚡ :

that thing is bigger than my whole lab lmao

03Renee :

Our stockyard are always down, always. We have 3. Yours is prettier and probably newer though. Beckman service has been subpar in our area

Cynthia :

Those tracks are all fun and games until caps are popping off or barcode readers become blind or the air pressure messes up and then you hear beep beep beep beep beep non stop 😭

Kat Dee :

It's nice to see the size of one before we get it in 2 years. How the heck are they going to fit that thing in our lab without knocking down walls. 😅

blhoeme :

MUST BE NICE WHILE IM OUT HERE BREAKIN MY BACK

Ricci Hunter :

What lab is this? I have questions

Prof. Lorne Hofseth :

You said nothing. There’s no information you gave.

Naynay :

unfortunately this would not fit in my lab 😭

Rose :

Andddd they those damn lights are flashing red every five seconds, the centrifuge is ALWAYS broken, and the the errors never make sense
