ABSTRACT
Objective To execute quality control of OLYMPUS-PK7300 automated blood grouping analyzer to enhance the quality and efficiency in blood grouping.Methods Measures were proposed from the aspects of specimen quality,reagent quality,instrument maintenance,test parameters setup,internal quality control and external quality assessment,personnel and etc.Results Quality control was carried out at each link of the test by automated blood grouping analyzer to facilitate blood-related clinical operation.Conclusion Whole-course quality control of the analyzer has to be performed to improve blood grouping.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the blood screening results after adjustment of critical value 40 to 50 U/L and to observe the effect of reducing blood scrap rate and to discuss the correlation between ALT and HBV,HCV infection.Methods We screened 2656 blood donors (ALT >40 U/L)by serological and nucleic acid amplification testing(NAT)in Qingdao blood center from 2013 to 2014,and conducted the correlation analysis by chi square test.Results 1 771 cases (66.68%)were ALT 40-50 U/L,including 6 cases of HBsAg ELISA (+),2 cases NAT (+),4 cases NAT(-).In the 8 cases of anti-HCV ELISA (+)samples,4 cases NAT (+),3 cases NAT (-),1 case with positive TP without NAT result.In 885 blood donors with ALT>50 U/L,5 cases were HBsAg-reactive,7 cases were anti-HCV-reactive,and 873 cases were negative.Related statistics showed that there was no signifi-cant difference between ALT and HBV infection (P 0.05).Conclusion The proportion of blood donors with ALT 40-50 U/L is much higher than that with ALT >50 U/L do-nors.Adjustment of the critical value greatly reduces blood scrap rate.Elevated ALT is associated with the infection of HBV but not with HCV.
