Integrated IVF workstation from CellCura

Creating a new standard in laboratory efficiency and documentation, the
CellCura IVF workstation provides intelligent workplace solutions for ART.

Complete CellCura workstation

• All equipment from a single supplier for easier annual validation, training and support.
• Modular design allows flexible unit acquisition and placement as dictated by laboratory layout.
• The option of remote air-handling module eliminates noise and vibration from the laboratory and ensures a quiet vibration free work environment
• Full IT integration for all modules in all locations with barcode tracking of samples and consumables.

Gamete and Embryo Safety

Image and data collection, storage and analysis software

• All information is collected and centrally stored in a secure database for later analysis. Each embryo is tracked throughout the procedure providing a complete record of images, analysis, scoring and temperature plus media and disposables used at each stage of the procedure from gamete collection to embryo replacement. The process data from the laboratory is stored in such a way that all information on the couple's treatment journal is readily accessible and easy to locate.
• This capability allows the evaluation of all processes for either a single patient or comparison between patients, providing a powerful tool for process improvement, training and supplier evaluation.
• All records can be copied to the central LIMS system, backed up on DVD and archived to meet regulatory requirements.

CellCura ICSI module

A state of the art digital microscope provides real time images viewed on a high resolution, flat panel monitor instead of through the microscope eye pieces. This, combined with ergonomic placement of all controls, ensures ease of use and maximum operator comfort. All tools, processes, images and observations are recorded providing a complete in-vitro history of oocytes and embryos. Innovative laminar airflow maintains accurate temperature and environmental control, meeting all current regulatory requirements. Microscope completely isolated from work surface and surroundings on a separate anti-vibration platform ensuring optimum conditions for ICSI procedures.

CellCura Egg Recovery module

A completely clear, obstruction free, single level work space is achieved by incorporating innovative digital imaging of oocytes. Filtered air supply and heated work surface is continuously monitored ensuring optimal conditions for oocytes outside the incubator. Oocytes are safely examined and images recorded before placing in the incubator.

CellCura Utility module

This multi-purpose module with sterilisable keyboard, mouse and flat panel monitor is linked to the other modules and can be used for many applications including: analysis of data and images whilst routine procedures continue on other modules in the workstation. a routine work area complete with scanning and tracking capability, power and gas supplies a workspace for data analysis in a location remote to the laboratory.

CellCura Incubator module

• The dedicated incubator module continues the level work surface at the same height as the other modules to maximise safety for movement of material to and from the incubator.
• Dedicated gas and power supply lines are standard with triple gas specification available.
• Storage space is provided under the incubator for small gas bottles or other items.

Configuration

• The modular nature of the workstation allows complete flexibility in layout configuration. Any number of modules can be located together to suit clinic workflow requirements.

Regulatory compliance

• The CellCura workstation modules and software have been designed to comply with all existing and proposed regulatory requirements such as the recently introduced EU directive 2004/23/EC.
• Compliance reports can be produced automatically in the format required by the local regulatory authority.

Ergonomics and workflow improvement

• CellCura provides a working environment that will assist the embryology staff to work efficiently and effectively in a pleasant environment where all controls are easily at hand and ergonomic design is a primary consideration.
