Your Hematology Laboratory Is Installing a New Analyzer and You

question 17

Essay

Your hematology laboratory is installing a new analyzer and you are responsible for validating the instrument reportable range. The manufacturer has supplied you with a linearity kit which spans the entire stated reportable range but after assaying the kit, you are getting unacceptable values for the upper end of the WBC reportable range. The manufacturer states the WBC range is 0-100.0 × 10⁹/L but your results become non-linear at an upper value of 91.0 × 10⁹/L. What are your next steps? What will you set for your lab's reportable range for WBC on the new analyzer?
