e. RUO Parameters
1) The RUO (research use only) parameters on this instrument are PCT
(plateletcrit), PDW (platelet distribution width), ATL (atypical lymphocytes)
and IMM (immature cells).
2)
Disabled is the default setting.
3) When
Disabled is selected, PCT, PDW, ATL and IMM are inhibited; they are not
displayed, printed, or transmitted.
4) If you select
Enabled - USA:
a) You must print and fill out an RUO form and send the completed form to
Beckman Coulter as instructed.
b) The @ label precedes the PCT, PDW, ATL and IMM parameters when they
are displayed, printed, or transmitted
c) The following message, For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic
procedures (RUO), is also displayed, printed, or transmitted.
5) In the USA, you must either disable the RUO parameters or enable them for
research use only.
f. Manual Match
1) When you are using a Worklist, the instrument uses the positive ID (barcode or
cassette/position number) to match the Worklist order with the appropriate
sample results and automatically sends the results to the Results List.
2) If the instrument cannot match the results and Manual Match is ON (enabled),
the instrument:
a) Sends the results to the Match screen for you to match.
b) Flashes the Results icon, , to alert you.
3) If the instrument cannot match results and Manual Match is OFF (disabled):
a) The instrument reports the sample as it is analyzed.
b) If the Sample ID is unknown it assigns an AUTO_SID number.
4)
Manual Match OFF is the default setting.
5) If you are using a Worklist, it is recommended that you enable the Manual
Match option to ensure samples are reported with all the information on the
Worklist order.
6) If you are not using a Worklist, you may want to disable the Manual Match
option to prevent the instrument from trying to match sample results with a
non-existent Worklist order and sending all the results to the Match screen.
7) The recommended scenario for running patient samples is to use bar-code
labels on the tubes as the positive ID and to enable
Manual Match ON.
g. Auto-Stop for QA Messages
1) Whenever a QC Failed message (alarm) is triggered, you can elect to:
a) Stop analysis of patient samples (
Stop instrument on “QC Failed” message).
b) Have the instrument post a QC Failed message in the tree view for the
control that exceeded its limits and for any patient sample that is ran
following that control sample (
Display and Print “QC Failed” message).
