Connect Your VIDAS / MiniVIDAS to Any HIS or LIMS

The bioMérieux VIDAS and MiniVIDAS are automated immunoassay systems for serology, infectious disease, endocrinology, and cardiac marker testing.

Connect your VIDAS or MiniVIDAS to the LIS automatically. LISBridge implements the bioMérieux ASTM protocol, parses immunoassay results including qualitative index values, and forwards to your HIS without manual entry.

How LISBridge Connects the VIDAS / MiniVIDAS

01

Connect your instrument

Plug in via RS-232 or point it at LISBridge over TCP/IP. Auto-detection identifies the instrument and loads the correct parser — no manual selection.

02

Parse the data

LISBridge reads the ASTM E1394 stream in real time. Every result message is decoded — field by field — into structured data.

03

Validate results

Each result is checked for completeness. Duplicates caught. Malformed messages flagged. Only clean data moves forward.

04

HIS receives clean data

Validated results reach your HIS automatically — as HL7 or direct format. Stored locally too. No manual entry required.

VIDAS / MiniVIDAS — Frequently Asked Questions

Does LISBridge support both VIDAS and MiniVIDAS?

Yes. Both use the same bioMérieux ASTM protocol. LISBridge auto-detects which model is connected and applies the correct parser.

How are VIDAS qualitative results (Positive/Negative/Equivocal) handled?

LISBridge passes through the qualitative result status and index value exactly as reported by the VIDAS instrument. Both the numerical index and the interpretation are forwarded to the HIS.

What tests does LISBridge extract from the VIDAS?

All VIDAS assay codes are extracted — HBsAg, anti-HCV, HIV Ag/Ab, toxoplasma, rubella, CMV IgM/IgG, anti-HBs, TSH, fT4, troponin I, BNP, procalcitonin, and others configured on your instrument.

Does the VIDAS use standard RS-232 baud rates?

Yes. The VIDAS communicates at 9600 baud over RS-232. LISBridge auto-configures from the instrument profile.
