3-8-6- Performing reflex tests
When reflex tests have been programmed for an analyte (see Section 7,
7-2- Defining reflex tests
, page 156),
and when a patient result meets the defined conditions, depending on the option in the
REFLEX TESTS
menu
,
additional assays can be:
-
automatically added to the relevant profile,
-
added to the profile either after accepting an automatic action or after using a specific button in the
profile edition.
Once the requests of the new assays are added to the profile, assays are carried out in the worklist after
calibrations, controls and STAT samples.
Any result of a reflex test is accompanied by the message
RFX
.
When the same assay is requested by several reflex tests, this assay is carried out once only.
Similarly, in the case of an analyte assayed in several replicates, a single request is programmed for each of
the reflex tests associated to this analyte.
Only a calculated result of a patient profile can generate reflex tests. A result of a reflex test (with message
RFX
) will not generate reflex testing.
Option
As soon as the result of the analyte concerned by a reflex test meets the defined conditions, additional assays
are automatically added to the profile. The relevant assays are included in the list of assays and scheduled
after calibrations, controls and STAT samples according to the order of the sample compartment positions.
Option
An automatic action is generated by the system as soon as reflex tests must be carried out for a patient. The
appearance of this automatic action is indicated with the icon
flashing in the
WARNING
button.
Reflex tests can be requested either by accepting the automatic action or from the relevant profile edition.
