Dimension® Xpand® Plus Integrated Chemistry System Competency Checklist

Dimension® Xpand® Plus Integrated Chemistry System Competency Checklist Once an employee has acquired the necessary knowledge and skills to perform basic operation tasks this checklist can be used to observe the employee perform the required tasks for their core job responsibilities and to document demonstrated competency. The observer places their initials and date beside the task when it is performed successfully. Successful completion for each task is determined by the facility. The standards used to evaluate can be documented in the “Criteria” section below. Use the area on the last page to record comments or areas of improvement. If necessary, the observer can record recommended next steps of action for areas of improvement or development opportunities. When all required tasks are completed, the supervisor and employee sign and date this document as a record of completion. Criteria - Standards for successful completion of each task (e.g. Accuracy, Time, Quality, etc.): Observer’s Initials and Completion Date Topic/Tasks System Overview Identify and locate major hardware components Navigate instrument software Complete hardware identification worksheet Complete software matching exercise Load a Flex® reagent cartridge HM Identify major hardware components of the HM area Complete hardware identification worksheets Clean HM wash probes and R2 probe tip Stylet HM wash probes Replace HM pump heads Clean reagent probe drains Update maintenance log IMT Locate components of the IMT system Define the function of each IMT component Replace IMT Fluids Replace the QuikLYTE® Integrated Multisensor Condition IMT and run a Dilution Check Resolve a Failed Dilution Check Update the appropriate Maintenance Log Reagent Monitoring Perform reagent hydrations Process HIL samples and interpret HIL test report messages (if applicable) Respond to STAT Status Respond to Supply Alert Locate method specific information in the reagent cartridge Instructions for Use (IFU) Process samples using Manual and Automatic dilutions Process samples with panic repeats Respond to the Sample Alert key Sample Processing Evaluate sample volumes using the Tube Fill Guide Load and process barcoded and non-barcoded sample tubes Use the Manual Query feature Add samples during processing Quality #
