3-11- Messages Associated with Results
The results generated for samples are accompanied by a message (displayed in the column “MESSAGE”)
associated with a colour code.
If a result does not have a message attached, OK is displayed and the result is associated with a green colour
code.
If one of the messages listed below accompanies a result, an orange colour code is associated with the result
(displayed in “STATE” column).
The colour code is also passed on to patient level:
•
Green & = No message accompanies the results.
•
Orange & = At least one result has a message.
All fields
The calibration used for calculating the result was accepted with a Supervisor level of
access.
Spectrophotometry
An absorbance is below the limit of reaction defined in the analytical configuration.
* * * * * is displayed instead of the result.
Spectrophotometry
An absorbance exceeds the limit of reaction defined in the analytical configuration.
* * * * * is displayed instead of the result. The sample will be automatically diluted if a
dilution rate is defined in the analytical configuration.
If the ASU message accompanies the message “RED”, one of the absorbances is still
outside the limits of reaction defined after dilution.
In this case, the sample must be re-diluted to a level higher than that programmed in
the analytical configuration, then tested again.
Biochemistry
Absorbance of blank outside the limits defined in the analytical configuration.
Spectrophotometry
Slope of the kinetics has been calculated on a non-linear section of the reaction
(for KINETIC type of assay).
The coefficient of determination is lower than the limit value defined in the analytical
configuration.
For the Clot Detection option
Clot detection is not active for this test.
The sample volume defined for the test is below the lower sample volume required by the
clot detection process.
All fields
Error when calculating a parameter calculated.
Luminescence
The RLU measurement was corrected.
One measurement of the integrated signal, out of the scope of the luminometer, was
excluded and replaced by a point calculated by smoothing.
All fields
Temperature of the carousel outside limits or not stable during the assay.
