Configuring Automatic Reflex Test Order Assignment
Configure the system to automatically generate reflex test orders for all specimens
that meet the result interpretation criteria through the Reflex Testing Configuration
screen. Under this configuration, specimens that produce results that match the
criteria designated on the screen are assigned a reflex assay test order. This
configuration works the same in batch loading and random access loading (LIS)
modes.
To configure the system to automatically assign reflex test orders:
1. From the Administration screen, select Reflex Testing Configuration.
The screen transitions to the Reflex Testing Configuration screen.
2. Check the Enable Reflex Testing cell for the desired reflex condition. The
system will only list the reflex options if both the initial and reflex assays are
loaded onto the system.
The Select at Rack Load option becomes available after checking the Enable
Reflex Testing cell. Do not check the Select at Rack Load cell for the
automation reflex setting.
3. Select Save to save the changes to the configuration setting.
Configuring Reflex Test Order Assignment During Rack Load
Configure the system to generate reflex test orders for specimens chosen during the
Sample Rack loading process through the Reflex Testing Configuration screen.
Under this configuration, specimens that are scheduled to be tested with the
configured screening assay are highlighted during the Sample Rack loading
process. Specimens can then be designated by the operator for reflex test order
assignment. When designated, those samples that produce results that match the
reflex criteria are assigned a reflex assay test order (see Designating Reflex Tests
During Sample Rack Loading on page 253).
This configuration is handled differently in batch loading and random access loading
(LIS) modes. In the batch loading mode, the system will automatically transition to the
Sample Rack Loading screen to allow the operator to designate specimens for reflex
testing. In the random access loading mode, specimens that are scheduled to be
tested with the configured screening assay are labeled with an "R" upon loading.
The operator will need to select the rack and then select Rack Details to transition to
the Sample Rack Loading screen for specimen designation (see Designating Reflex
Tests During Sample Rack Loading on page 253).
To configure the system to allow the operator to assign reflex test orders during
Sample Rack loading:
1. From the Administration screen, select Reflex Testing Configuration.
The screen transitions to the Reflex Testing Configuration screen.
