Summary

Ortho VITROS® Solutions


Contributes to Improve Patient Care
Five Key Benefits
Our portfolio solutions is ready to transform your lab’s entire ecosystem, to
future proof it and to improve the quality of care you provide to patients.

1. A market leading first pass yield of 96%, in combination with a market


leading 95% reagent efficiency. Offers the best in test quality and the best
in minimising interferences effecting your lab.

2. Advanced automation with auto-verification delivers worry-free results


around the clock, saving hundreds of manual skilled labour hours per year.

3. Our innovative waterless technology powers our clinical testing solutions


since 1978. Our VITROS® Systems do not require water or drains to operate,
helping our customers reduce their environmental footprint.

Each VITROS® System alone saves hospitals 170,000L of purified water a


year per analyser, enough for a family of 4 to survive on for 20 years.*

4. Our predictive technologies “e-Connectivity” increases analyser uptime,


improves reliability and optimize system performance.

5. Ortho Care™, our holistic support programme provides real-time,


personalised service and support to ensure labs are running efficiently so
you can consistently deliver excellent patient care.
