Test Ranges:
•
Reportable Range is the lowest to highest values the test system will report.
•
Reference Range is the normal values for a species population.
•
Critical Values indicate that a patient may need treatment right away if results are at
or below the low value, or at or above the high value.
Flagged results:
•
If stars (***) are displayed instead of a result, it means that a test failed internal
quality checks. All reported results are accurate. Remix the tube of blood and repeat
test using a new cartridge. If the result is still not displayed, call Technical Service.
•
Results outside the System’s reportable ranges are flagged with a < or >, indicating
that the result is below the lower limit or above the upper limit of the reportable
range respectively. The <> flag indicates that the results for this test were
dependent upon the result of a test flagged as either < or >. Action: if results are
flagged as <, >, or <>, send the specimen to the laboratory for analysis, if necessary.
•
The analyzer shows the numerical
values and units for chemistry and
blood gas test results.
•
If any result is shown as ***, <, >,
or <>, see Flagged Results.
•
If a message and code are displayed,
see the Quality Check section.
Note: If Analyzer turns off before review of results is complete, press to turn
it on, then press for Last Result.
