Reliable diagnostic results start with reliable water

EU TDS_Risk Guide_Clinical

Every day, hundreds of patients rely on the quality of the results generated by your clinical analyzers. But behind every analysis lies a critical element that is often overlooked: water.

Poor water quality can lead to:

  • Repeat tests

  • Analyzer downtime

  • Increased maintenance costs

  • Additional reagent consumption

  • Delayed patient results

  • Reduced laboratory efficiency

When patients rely on you, these are risks you simply cannot afford.

How to identify and mitigate water-related risks in your laboratory

 

This practical guide explains how water quality affects clinical analyzer performance and provides actionable recommendations to help you:


✔ Ensure consistent and reliable analytical results
✔ Minimize downtime and maintenance interventions
✔ Meet CLRW quality requirements
✔ Protect patient safety and your laboratory's reputation
✔ Improve operational efficiency

Why water matters

 

Water is involved in almost every stage of the analytical process:


💧 Sample preparation
💧 Reagent dilution
💧 Probe washing
💧 Incubator baths
💧 Cuvette cleaning


Contaminants such as particles, ions, organics and microorganisms can affect analyzer performance and compromise result quality. Understanding these risks is the first step toward preventing them.
