Conclusions:
Sepsis-XN
Sepsis affects most routine & CPD items obtai
ned using Sysmex XN-2000.
Neutrophil-related CPD NE-SFL & NE-WY provide
useful information for Detecting Sepsis.
Routine items, NE-SFL & NE-WY discriminate Sepsis
Patients, however, these values cannot discriminate
Sepsis Severity or predict Mortality at 28 days.
D I C Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
Systemic activation of Coagulation & Inflammation :
Activated Monocytes & Neutrophils, Fragmented RBC
Microvascular thrombi in Multi-organs
Derangement of Oxygen supply to tissues
Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome
Morphological changes of
Activated Monocyte & Neutrophil
detected using XN-2000
DIC-XN
Aim of Study
We investigated 36 routine CBC & 57 CPD items
provided by XN-2000
to discover items reflecting morphological changes
of blood cells in DIC, and
to evaluate for diagnostic & prognostic markers of DIC
Methods
280 normal controls
118 patients (ca, infection, hep. failure, hematologic malig. etc)
60: overt DIC (ISTH)
58: diseases ass c DIC, CRP >0.6 mg/dL, normal PT & aPTT
Results
DIC-XN
 Discriminate DIC from NC
: AUC > 0.90
Discriminate DIC from non-DIC : AUC > 0.75

Conclusions
DIC-XN
 RDW-CV, IG count & Mo-X showed
better diagnostic power for diagnosis of DIC
than platelet count.
 RDW-CV, IG count & Mo-X provide valuable
information to diagnose & monitor DIC
in a time- & cost-effective manner.
 RDW-CV might be a prognostic marker for
overt DIC patients.
Summary of XN evaluation
Sepsis affects most routine & CPD items. Sepsis-XN
Neutrophil-related CPD NE-SFL & NE-WY provide
useful information for Detecting Sepsis.
DIC-XN
RDW-CV, IG count & Mo-X showed better diagnostic
power for diagnosis of DIC than platelet count,
provide valuable information to diagnose & monitor
DIC in a time- & cost-effective manner.
RDW-CV might be a prognostic marker for DIC pts.
