Definitions
- This invention relates to automatic testing of biological samples, for
- vital parameters such as the amount of fluid aspirated in a test sample
- control samples of known material often referred to as controls, are tested in
- test equipment such as the immunoassay analyzer.
- control samples are the control samples
- control tests can include the determination of the amount of acidity
- test equipment can gradually lose accuracy during a day of testing. This
- analyzer or assay system, provides for frequent testing of control samples to
- This operation can be performed automatically by a random
- control testing should be performed
- the calibration test is performed before and after a
- interval of time between sets of control tests may be based on experience in
- the result of a control test can be referred to as an index representing
- control test index can be described with reference to a
- patient test can also be referred to as an index.
- control testing wherein a sequence of successive runs of patient tests is
- control tests precedes and follows a run of patient tests. For example, a first
