Use this screen to link the Starrsed Control sample ID with a Lab ID or to check which links are active.
1. "Starrsed Control sample ID": Enter the lot number or scan the barcode from the original Starrsed
Control tube label. If the original label is already covered by the Lab ID label, find the lot number and
barcode on the package insert.
2. "Lab ID": Enter the patient number or scan the barcode from the label that the lab is using to identify
the sample.
3. Click button "Link IDs" to add the linked ID's to the list. The "Date linked" will be added automatically.
4. Attach the Lab ID label on the Starrsed Control sample tube so that the original barcode is completely
covered to ensure that only the Lab ID barcode can be scanned by the Interrliner.
If the Starrsed Control sample ID is not correct or the expiry date is exceeded, a message will be shown and
the ID's are not added to the list.
To remove a link that will no longer be used, select the link in the table and click on "
Remove link
".
Depending on the optional setting "
Automatically remove linked QC ID after result
",
(Settings - QC Settings)
the links
can be removed automatically when a usable ESR result has been reported for this particular Lab ID.
5.3.5.7 - QC Result analysis
Authorized staff should identify and differentiate acceptable/unacceptable random errors and trends and/or
shifts in systematic errors from the statistical data. Depending on the users Quality Control Procedures
analytical results could be accepted or rejected.
Changes in QC results can be gradual or abrupt. Gradual changes can be caused by contamination and
incidental environmental variations. Abrupt changes can be caused by change of QC material batch or
possible hardware errors.
If results are continuously out of range due to significant difference between calculated mean and control
value, but the statistics show precise results with small deviations, it should be considered to expand the
acceptable assay range with QC Settings.
If results are incidentally out of range it is advised to perform a daily maintenance and/or fill and clean step
and then perform another QC sample step before releasing patient results.
If results are not sent to the LIMS QC Results can be exported to MS Excel CSV files for further analysis in
lab's own Quality Control data system.
