7. Flags
7.1. Introduction
These instrument flags can be classified into 3 different groups:
1- Results exceeding normal limits: See 7.2. Normal limits, page 4-28 .
2- Flags linked to results that exceed the linear range of the instrument or leading to " Rejected
Analysis ": See 7.3. Flags linked to linearity range and rejected analysis, page 4-28 .
3- Flags linked to the morphology of a blood cell population: See 7.4. Morphology flags, page 4-29 .
7.2. Normal limits
◆
The " H " flag located next to a parameter result indicates that the value is "Above" the upper limit
of the analysis limits set by the operator: See Section 6, 6.3. Analysis limits, page 6-12 .
◆
The " L " flag located next to a parameter result indicates that the value is "Below" the lower limit
of the analysis limits set by the operator: See Section 6, 6.3. Analysis limits, page 6-12 .
7.3. Flags linked to linearity range and rejected analysis
These flags are shown in different ways as indicated:
◆
See 7.3.1. Results exceeding linear range, page 4-28 .
◆
Results associated with an asterisk (*): See 7.3.2. Results rejected, page 4-28 .
◆
Dollar sign ($): See 7.3.3. Result comparison, page 4-28 .
◆
Exclamation mark for HGB (!): See 7.3.4. HGB blank reference, page 4-29 .

Tab.4-8 Displayed, printed and host transmitted results
7.3.2. Results rejected
◆
A " Reject " flag, shown by an asterisk (*) following the parameters WBC, RBC, HCT, or PLT indicates
that the ABX Micros ES60 OT/CT has analyzed that parameter for a maximum of 3 counts. All 3
counts were outside the system precision limits for that specific parameter.
◆
The results should be verified by re-running the sample.
7.3.3. Result comparison
◆
A reportable result shown by a dollar sign ($) following the parameters WBC, RBC, HCT or PLT
indicates that the ABX Micros
ES60 OT/CT has analyzed that parameter for a maximum of 3 counts.
Two out of three counts were within the system precision limits for that specific parameter.
◆
The results can be reported, but the parameter should be monitored for the next sample
analyzed.
When D, !, *, $ flags are triggered, result cannot be sent automatically.

Whole blood parameter results within visible range will still give a result
value with a "
D " indication. These results require a dilution (or PRP analysis
for PLT) of the sample with the instrument diluent.
