4.2.1 Selecting Patient’s Normal Range
For a printout of test results superimposed on a
pictogram of the normal hematology range of the
patient, program the applicable normal range into
the analyzer before running each test as described
below.
With the display reading CBC MODE as shown
opposite, use the [5] or [6] key to scroll through the
following menu of sex-specific adult or age-specific
pediatric normal ranges:
• Adult Female
• Adult Male
• Age: 6 Years-Puberty
•Age: 2-6 Years
•Age: 6-24 Months
•Age: 2-6 Months
•Age: 4-8 Weeks
Pediatric
•Age: 1-4 Weeks
•Age: 2-7 Days
•Age: 24-48 Hours
•Age: 12-24 Hours
•Age: 0-12 Hours
When the desired range is on display, close the
loading platform door to start the assay. If the
loading platform door is closed without making a
normal range selection, the adult male and female
normal ranges will both appear on the printout.
IMPORTANT: Selection of any of the pediatric
normal ranges will prevent printout of hematology
diagnostic reminders (in software cartridges
programmed for HDR).
Note: The QBC tube can be inserted into the loading
platform before or immediately after selecting the
normal range.
4.2.2 Starting An Assay
An assay is started as soon as the loading platform
door is closed. Upon closing the door the display
will promptly advance to ASSAY IN PROGRESS.
