Configuring reruns
You may have to rerun some patient tests if they are flagged with an alarm mark or for
any reason required by your laboratory review protocol. If needed, the chemistry system
can automatically request and rerun flagged results. You can also manually request a
rerun.
Automatically request reruns for flagged samples
•
Use the Rerun.cond. button in the Analytical Parameters (Chemistry) window to
request a rerun if a photometric test is flagged. You can have the rerun automatically
performed with the original dilution ratio (first condition), or with an alternate
dilution (u or d) that is defined in the Reanalysis conditions area. Automatic use of an
alternate diluent is also available.
•
Use Rerun Condition in the ISE Parameter Settings window to request a rerun if an
ISE result is flagged.
•
Use the Rerun Condition feature in the Ratio Parameters window to request a rerun if
a ratio is flagged.
Processing the rerun automatically
Use Auto Retest on the System Specifications Settings window to have the rerun
automatically aspirated from the dilution tray (DTT) or the sample tray (STT).
Manually requesting rerun using Review/Edit
Use the Review/Edit window to manually request a rerun for any patient test result. In the
Dispens.vol. column, select the original sample dilution or a reanalysis dilution (u or d)
previously defined in the Analytical Parameters (Chemistry) window.
