LAB 304 Lecture \ 6
2
Learning objectives To know guidelines in result reporting. To recognize how to interpret CBC result. To recognize how to interpret CHEMISTRY result. To understand the meaning of.
3
Results reporting Laboratory result consisting of the following 1. patient identification data 2. name of lab section 3. name of test performed 4. specimen type 5. lab number Result may be presented as either of the following: A. numerical value B. qualitative value C. interpretative comments
4
Results reporting Reference values should be mentioned in the result report. Reference range : it is the interval between and including two reference limits ( upper & lower ) for the specific test. The test should be repeated if the results are out of range
5
Results reporting If the sample is rejected, the reasons must be written Samples may be rejected due to: 1. Q.N.S sample. (Quantity of specimen not sufficient) 2. Clotted sample. 3. Hemolysed sample. 4. Sample collected in wrong tube. 5. Test N/A ( not available ) 6. Specimen not labeled. 7. Incomplete request's information.

28
Critical values Critical Results : a Pathophysiological state at such variances with normal are to be life-threatening unless something is done promptly and for which some corrective action could be taken.
29
Critical values PROCEDURE : 1- A critical value result should be confirmed by repeating the test for a second time. 2- If the result is similar to the previous one, the comment code or footnote: CPR (Consistent with the Previous Result) is written by the lab technician. 3- If the result is critical and no history of pervious critical value for this test, the result is confirmed, and the doctor is called.
