What to do if Quality Control (QC) is out of range too HIGH or too LOW on HemoCue Medical Equipment?
- T
  Troy HernandezSep 1, 2025
  If the Quality Control (QC) is out of range, it could be due to several reasons: * Microcuvettes or QC being past their expiry date, damaged, or improperly stored. * Contamination of the microcuvette's optical eye. * QC not properly mixed or not at room temperature. * Air bubbles in the cuvette. * A dirty optronic unit. * Changes in the analyzer's calibration. To resolve this: * Check the expiry dates and storage conditions of both the microcuvettes and the QC. * Repeat the test with a new microcuvette, ensuring the QC is well mixed and at room temperature. * Inspect the microcuvette for bubbles. * Clean the optronic unit. * Note that the analyzer may require service.
