Hemoglobinometry according to the International Committee of Standardization in Hematology (ICSH) suffers from imprecision related to high sample dilution and from potential errors owing to sample turbidity. We have evaluated a new instrument, "HemoCue," that measures hemoglobin at two wavelengths as azide methemoglobin, without dilution. The HemoCue method is superior to the ICSH method: by correction for turbidity, it avoids false hemoglobin readings that may arise from hyperlipemia or some large M-component of the immunoglobulin M class. We find the equipment suitable for use in outpatient units.
