Running an LQC Sample (Cont’d)<br />
• Carefully snap open the control ampule<br />
• Draw the control sample into a non-heparinized<br />
syringe using a large bore 18-20 gauge needle.<br />
**Unlike with a patient sample, do not invert the<br />
syringe to expel air bubbles. Keep the needle<br />
pointed down.<br />
• Remove the needle from the syringe and place<br />
syringe in the cartridge port.<br />
• Press test and when prompted gently inject<br />
entire contents of the syringe into the cartridge.<br />
• If QC results are within limits, press done. If<br />
outside the limits, press “notes” and document<br />
problem.
