corrective action.
Although a message is displayed on the instrument when a quality check failure occurs, the details are
not available in Review Results. The information shown below is to aid the administrator in answering
questions or performing troubleshooting.
A Quality Check Failure can occur during patient testing (Patient Pathway), while performing Quality
Control (Quality Control Pathway), or when using the Electronic Simulator (Electronic Simulator
Pathway).
For instrument issues, follow the instructions on the display. If the instrument has been powered down,
the Quality Check Failure code will be stored in Review Results. To retrieve it: Power on the instrument
and touch More Options > Review Results > Quality Results > Quality Check Code Results.
Use the following tables to find the Quality Check Failure code and determine the cause and resolution.
1. In the table below, in the first column, find the QCF code as found in Review Results.
2. Identify the pathway in which the failure occurred, and
• in the Cause column find the cause number, then see
description
• in the Resolution column find the resolution letter, then see
corrective action.
