NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH Wadsworth Center HEMATOLOGY
HEMATOLOGY PROFICIENCY TESTING – February 1, 2016
This proficiency test event includes some or all of the specimens listed below for each test category. The specimen have been tested by FDA accepted methods and found non-reactive for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg), antibody to Hepatitis C (HCV) and antibody to HIV-1/HIV-2. All specimens should be handled with the same precautions that are used in handling any other possibly infectious specimen.
Cellular Hematology- routine blood counts Cytohematology Diagnostic- cell identification Coagulation- PT/INR, APTT, Fibrinogen
It is strongly recommended that testing be performed as soon as proficiency specimens are received to avoid unavailability of replacement specimens. Replacement deadline is February 8, 2016. If specimens are received in an unsatisfactory condition, if the shipment is incomplete, or if there are any questions concerning the specimens call (518) 474-9878. Routine Blood Counts Protocol: Five specimens: B21, B22, B23, B24, B25
1. Store at 2-8ºC. Protect from heat and freezing. 2. Remove tubes from refrigerator and equilibrate to room temperature for 15 minutes. 3. To mix, hold tube horizontally between the palms of the hands. Do not pre-mix on a mechanical mixer.
a. Roll the tube back and forth for 20 - 30 seconds; occasionally invert the tube. Mix vigorously, but do not shake. b. Continue to mix in this manner until the red cells are completely suspended. Tubes stored for a long time may require
extra mixing. c. Gently invert the tube 8 - 10 times immediately before sampling.
4. Process proficiency test specimens as patient specimens. 5. After sampling, return tubes to refrigerator (2-8 ºC) within 30 minutes of use.
ANALYZER INSTRUCTION: CD 4000, Sapphire: PIC/POC error may occur on platelet parameter. Please ignore and report the optical platelet value. CD 3500, CD3700, CD3200, Ruby: WBC Flags may occur. Please ignore and report the WOC value for the WBC count. ADVIA 120/2120: WBC Flags may occur. Please ignore and report the WBCB (Baso) value for the WBC count. Sysmex users: Report impedance platelet value. Sysmex XN-Series only: Deselect PLT-F and report impedance platelet value Cell Identification Protocol: Images: 421, 422, 423, 424, 425
1. Review each image at http://www.wadsworth.org/chemheme/cellPT and select the identification code that best describes the finding(s) identified by the arrow(s).
2. All images were taken with a 100x oil immersion lens. Coagulation Protocol (PT/INR, APTT, Fibrinogen): Five specimens for: C21, C22, C23, C24, C25
1. Store at 2-8ºC. Protect from heat or freezing. 2. Reconstitute each specimen with 1.0 ml of distilled water. 3. Replace the stoppers and swirl gently. Do not mix vigorously. Allow to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. 4. Perform the assays within one hour of reconstitution. Test the specimens in the same manner as routine patient specimens, with
your laboratory’s primary instrument and appropriate reagents. International Sensitivity Index (ISI): Please indicate the ISI of your thromboplastin reagent. International Normalized Ratio (INR): If your laboratory reports prothrombin times as INR’s, please indicate the INR for specimens C21-C25. Reference ranges: Please include normal reference ranges for coagulation assays in the spaces provided on page 3. Page 1 of 4 (1/16)
