1.1 Intended use

For in vitro diagnostic use.
The Urinalysis Work Area Information Management System U-WAM is an instrument status and data management
software specifically for Sysmex Urine Analyzers and Imaging Devices.
U-WAM performs analysis order registrations and patient information management.
U-WAM supports the technical validation of diagnostic results combined with a rule based judgement, as well as
quality control management and the manual classification of human urine particle images captured with Sysmex Fully
Automated Urine Particle Digital Imaging Device UD-10.
The software does not modify the data nor does it control the medical device.
1.2 Overview of the product

This product is a software system for comprehensive management of analysis data and live status updates from a
variety of instruments, including specific urine quantitative analyzers, digital imaging devices, and qualitative devices.
Urine quantitative analyzers, digital imaging devices, and qualitative devices are referred to as "the analyzer" in this
manual.
This product and analyzers send and receive analysis results and instrument statuses. This product can be
connected to a host computer.
You can use this product with multiple devices. When using this product with multiple devices, the device in which the
server is installed is referred to as "the server device" and the device in which the server is not installed is referred to
as "the client device" in this manual.
The permissions for a client device are different from the permissions for a server device. For details, see Chapter 10.
(➤P.204 "Chapter 10: 10.6.2 The permissions for the client device")
Caution!
Use analysis results only as part of an overall diagnosis including clinical symptoms and other examination
results.

4.2 Registering analysis orders (order entry)

Order entry is to register sample information (sample number, patient information, and order information), a profile,
parameter, and other information in an analysis order before performing analysis.
Note:
• You can also analyze a sample without order entry, and register an order after analysis is completed. For
details, see Chapter 8.
(➤P.140 "Chapter 8: 8.7.2 Registering an order for a sample without an order")
• The analysis results of the same sample cannot be edited from multiple devices. If the sample is being
edited from another device, it can only be opened in read-only mode. In read-only mode, this function
cannot be used.

Quality control is the routine monitoring of analyzers and reagents using control materials that are the standard.
Analysis results are managed based on changes over time. For the settings for quality control, see Chapter 10.
(➤P.217 "Chapter 10: 10.10 Quality control settings")
For the procedure of quality control on each analyzer, see the following.
• Urine quantitative analyzer, digital imaging device
Follow the manual provided with the analyzer to perform quality control.
• Qualitative device
Register lot information using this product before performing QC analysis. For details on QC analysis, see the
manual provided with the analyzer.
5.2.1 QC files
A QC file is a file in which QC analysis results are saved by the control material lot.
