In this course, you have learned how to: Identify the steps to run patient test strips Urinalysis test strips allow nurses and technicians to perform a single test and obtain semi-quantitative results for a variety of test parameters. Test Modes: Quick Test: The system does not require the operator to enter data prior to starting the analysis. Quick test is the default setting. Full Test: The system prompts the operator to enter operator name, patient name, patient ID, and sample appearance prior to starting the analysis. Custom Setup: Allows each facility to customize which data to enter prior to starting the analysis. Test Types: Strip Test Verify that the test table insert is positioned with the reagent strip holder facing upward. From the Select Ready screen, touch Strip Test to access the Prepare Test screen which will prompt you through the preparation steps that must be completed within 8 seconds. Caution:  Wear personal protective equipment. Use universal precautions when working with biohazardous materials. Press the START button then dip the reagent strip into the sample, wetting all the pads. Be careful not to dip the automatic identification band or color band into the urine sample. Remove the strip immediately from the sample by dragging the edge against the side of the sample container. Touch the edge of the strip against a paper towel to blot any excess urine. With the test pads facing up, place the reagent strip in the channel of the table and slide it to the end. At the end of the 8 second countdown, the analyzer automatically pulls in the test table and performs an automatic calibration. Once the automatic calibration is completed, the screen displays a countdown of the time remaining in analyzing strip test results. When analysis is completed, the test strip is ejected and the results can be reviewed on screen or on a printout. Test results remain on screen for 2 minutes. After that time, the display returns to the main Select menu. Touch Done to complete the test and return to the main Select screen. Remove the used test strip from the analyzer. Dispose of the test strip and report results according to the procedures specified at your facility.   Identify products approved for use on the CLINITEK Status®+ Analyzer The CLINITEK Status®+ Analyzer uses only Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics products, which include: Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics test strips: chemically impregnated reagent strips that allow technicians to perform a single test and obtain semi-quantitative results for a number of different test parameters. Identify how to recall stored results The CLINITEK Status® platform offers expanded onboard memory storage for patient results that are recalled easily for improved data management. The CLINITEK Status® Connect system also stores quality control results. The CLINITEK Status® Connect Platform stores up to 950 patient test results in the onboard memory. When the limit of 950 has been reached, the oldest test will be deleted from the analyzer. Deleted information cannot be retrieved from the analyzer. The CLINITEK Status® Connect System can store 200 QC results in the on-board memory.  As there is no QC functionality on the CLINITEK Status®+ Analyzer, QC results must be tracked manually. Identify how to delete records from instrument memory Patient and QC records stored on the analyzer can be deleted permanently from instrument memory. Prior to deleting test results, be sure that the loss of the test results is acceptable. If the test results have not been sent to a host computer or printer, it is recommended that these tasks are performed before deleting the results as the system erases the results from the database and can no longer be accessed or recalled. Records cannot be deleted on an individual basis. Data stored on an LIS will not be deleted. Select Next to continue.
