Abstract:
1. A urine analyzer comprising: a qualitative measurement part comprising a first aspiration device that aspirates a first portion of a sample from a sample container and a detection section configured to perform measurement for a urine qualitative measurement item in the first portion; a sediment measurement part comprising a second aspiration device that aspirates a second portion of the sample from the sample container and a detection section configured to perform measurement for a urinary sediment measurement item in the second portion; a storage section for storing a qualitative measurement result obtained by the qualitative measurement part and a sediment measurement result obtained by the sediment measurement part; and a controller configured to perform, when the qualitative measurement result of the sample is obtained and the sediment measurement result of the sample has been stored in the storage section, a cross-check of the obtained qualitative measurement result and the stored sediment measurement result, and to perform, when the sediment measurement result of the sample is obtained and the qualitative measurement result of the sample has been stored in the storage section, a cross-check of the obtained sediment measurement result and the stored qualitative measurement result, wherein the controller performs the cross-check of the obtained qualitative measurement result and the stored sediment measurement result, if the qualitative measurement result is obtained within a predetermined time period after the stored sediment measurement result of the sample was obtained, and the controller performs the cross-check of the obtained sediment measurement result and the stored qualitative measurement result, if the sediment measurement result is obtained within a predetermined time period after the stored qualitative measurement result of the sample was obtained.
