Blood Test Machine for Clinic: Choosing a Hematology Analyzer for Your GP Practice
A practical decision guide for GP clinics weighing an in-house FBC against sending samples to an outside lab.
Last updated:
Is an in-house FBC worth it for your clinic?
Turnaround
Results during the visit let the doctor decide on treatment or referral the same day, and make dengue follow-ups quicker.
Volume
Daily start-up, shutdown and controls use a fixed amount of reagent. Compare your cost per test at your real volume with what the outside lab charges you per FBC.
Staff
Someone must run controls every morning, review flags and do the shutdown. Plan for at least two trained people.
Space
A stable bench, a dedicated power point with a UPS, reagent storage and a waste arrangement.
What a GP clinic usually needs
| Need | Typical GP choice |
|---|---|
| Differential | 3-part for most GPs; 5-part only if eosinophils, monocytes and basophils are needed routinely |
| Sample | 10–20 µL EDTA whole blood, with a pre-diluted capillary mode for children |
| Throughput | A compact analyser at around 40–60 samples an hour is ample for a clinic |
| Reagents | Three reagents, in pack sizes matched to your daily volume |
| Results | Printout, USB export or a link to your clinic system |
| Support | Reagent and control supply plus service in your state |
