3.9.6 Testing HbA1c Reproducibility (Hemolysis Sample)
Run a reproducibility test following the instructions described below if the reproducibility of HbA1c measurement
results seems to have been reduced in hemolysis sample measurements. This test repeatedly measures the same
hemolysis sample or hemolysis control divided into multiple sample containers, and displays statistical information
(average, R, S.D. and C.V.) from those results.
Prepare: Hemolysis sample or hemolysis control (1 type), sample containers (sample tube or sample cup, quantity
needed for the number of measurements)
, hemolysis control rack and protective gloves
1 Prepare samples.
a On the standby screen, touch , <8. Diagnosis menu>, <4. Reproducibility menu> and <2. Hemolysis
sample meas.> in that order.
• The following message will appear: “Divide the same hemolysis sample into sample tubes or sample cups, and set
them in the hemolysis control rack.”
b Prepare sample in a sample tube or sample cup.
• Divide the same hemolysis sample (or hemolysis control) into the
sample containers.
• You can place up to 5 sample tubes or sample cups.
c Set the sample containers in the hemolysis control rack.
• For sample tubes of about 15 mm diameter, remove the port
guides before setting the tubes.
For sample tubes:
Odd-numbered ports: Sample tube
Even-numbered ports: Empty
Wear protective gloves to prevent exposure to pathogenic microbes.
Discard used samples and protective gloves in accordance with local regulations for
biohazardous waste.
REFERENCE:
Number of measurements:
You can place up to 5 sample containers with hemolysis samples in the hemolysis control rack and up to 3
measurements can be performed per sample container. Therefore, a maximum of 15 measurements can be
performed at a time in the reproducibility test (see “Ctrl measurement count” on page 3-17).
