ABSTRACT
Septic arthritis is a diagnostic emergency. The white blood cell (WBC) count, in synovial fluid (SF), can guide the diagnosis. From November 2021 to November 2022, we included 350 SF. The WBC count was performed with the Iris iQ® 200 compared with the manual method. Automated and manual counts displayed good correlation. However, a Bland Altman plot demonstrates a higher percentage difference at higher WBC counts. The use of Iris iQ® 200 for SF analysis enables a rapid and accurate assessment for WBC count. Its implementation would advantageously replace the long and tedious optical analysis in daily routine.
