Stat Sample Mode, Flexible Testing - Human HumaFIA User Manual

3 ROUTINE UTILIZATION AND MEASUREMENT
After automatic reading of the results by the analyser, the results are shown together with the corresponding
unit in brackets. Results in black are normal, while results in red will get flagged with an arrow, since they are
out of the normal range. An arrow up is an indicator that the values are higher than normal. An arrow down
indicates a result below the normal range. The date and time of the reading is shown, together with the sample
type. S = serum, B = whole blood, P = plasma.
Note: 3-in-1 tests, like cTnI/Myo/CK-MB are displayed in 3 lines. Each parameter of the 3-in-1 cartridge is
shown in a separate line on the screen. The parameter names start and end with two dots (e.g, ..cTnI.., or
..Myo..).

3.2.2 STAT sample mode, flexible testing

Select STAT sample on the home screen or in the permanent header to reach the following menu.
STAT mode allows to incubate the sample outside the analyser and run another sample in between, if the
incubation time of the sample still allows it. The analyser does not monitor the incubation time in this mode.
Therefore, the operator must assure correct incubation time by manual methods, such as a timer.
First, define the next sample with the button Add sample. This leads to the process described in chapter
3.2.4 Add sample, patient data and parameter type.
Pressing Read incubated cartridge on the previous screen Add sample closes the sample
detail interface and starts the reading of the cartridge.
Insert the incubated cartridge into the analyser and press this button exactly when the
incubation time is up.
Pressing this button immediately starts the reading of the result. The result accuracy depends
on the correct incubation time. Therefore, the timing is very important when preparing the cartridge, starting
the timer and then starting the reading.
Note: 3-in-1 tests, like cTnI/Myo/CK-MB are displayed in 3 lines. Each parameter of the 3-in-1 cartridge is
shown in a separate line on the screen. The parameter names start and end with two dots (e.g, ..cTnI.., or
