Contribution to
imprecision
specifications
from HbF
correction
The process of HbF correction introduces additional noise compared to measure-
ment on adult samples. The following tables list the extra contribution which must
be added geometrically to the imprecision specifications for adult samples in order
to obtain the imprecision specifications for fetal samples (also for adult samples if
function “Correction for HbF levels less than 20 %” is activated).

; geometrical addition of imprecision
where S
fetal
is the calculated fetal imprecision; S
adult
is the corresponding adult
imprecision; S
HbF
is the extra contribution from HbF correction which is listed in
the following tables.
