@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 😂

Prof. Lorne Hofseth :

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

WannabePunk :

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

Ashley 🫠 :

Cries in Roche

Overlander1046 :

Please explain why this would be need in a massive underground bunker?

soccerstar4007 :

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

Mitch :

is this better than Atellica? 😂

dumboy420 :

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

That one person :

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

CinemaO'clock :

what job would now be left for a medical laboratory scientist

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 😅

Estephanie Reyes Vega :

What does the instrument do again? I was distracted 🤭

Zinhle 🇿🇦|🇺🇸 :

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

La Quimiqui👩🏽‍🔬 :

how much does it cost?

Stormy⚡ :

that thing is bigger than my whole lab lmao

Nancy Nance :

Does it uncapped samples too?

justin.b1032 :

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

Lw253128 :

Will this make my healthcare cheaper?

Cass :

Can you comment on any maintenance or issues the lab has had with the Beckman system?

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

Imune :
