cobas b 121 system
Measurement and calibration procedure
Measurement and calibration procedure procedure Measurement procedure Use the following methods are used to determine the various measurement variables: P O2 : Use of the Clark measurement principle: measurement of current generated by the reduction of oxygen
CO2 : Use of the Severinghouse principle: potentiometric measurement of the pH P CO change in the electrode caused by CO2. pH, Na+, K+, Ca2+ and Cl– are potentiometric electrodes. Special glasses are used as the sensitive element for pH and Na+. The potassium and calcium membranes contain special neutral carriers. A special ion exchanger is used for chloride membranes. Calculation of these variables also requires the use of a reference electrode - a permanently contacted chloride electrode in the instrument. tHb /SO2 : Light absorption absorpti on in whole blood is measured at four different di fferent wavelengths, wavelengths, whereby on one hand the sample is subjected to light radiation and on the other hand the dispersed light is also evaluated. Hematocrit : Measurement of the sample's conductivity
Calibration procedure tHb and SO2 are factory calibrated. Ambient air and a zero point solution are used to calibrate oxygen. The remaining parameters are calibrated using two solutions, which are mixed in various ratios. Gas containers are not used. The use of at least two calibration points for each measurement variable and constant internal monitoring of the calibrations ensures the accuracy and precision of the measurement values.
Measurement evaluation The results from the instrument must be carefully examined by a clinical-medical specialist who will take t ake the patient's clinical condition into consideration before any clinical decisions are reached based on the test results. In order to ensure the quality of the measurement results, complete a quality control test on 3 levels (low, normal, high) after each electrode exchange, after each exchange of solutions and packs and after startup of the instrument. Additionally complete a quality control test on one le vel between two automatic 2P calibrations. The levels have to be alternated (low, (low, normal, high). e

Multirules
Multirules The evaluation of QC results is based on the Westgard(a) rules and their interpretation for blood gas analysis(b). The Multirule process was derived from these rules. It permits early detection of random r andom and systematic errors associated with the measuring device and its operation. The Multirules procedure can only be applied in connection with a suitable control material (e.g. COMB ITROL TS+, AUTO-TROL AUTO-TROL TS+). ATTENTION
The Multirule procedures produce the best results when 3 QC measurements with randomly selected levels are completed per series (time between two 2-point calibrations). A minimum of 2 QC measurements / series or 6 QC measurements / 3 series is requir required. ed. The QC concept expects Multirules rule 1 and 2 to be activated.

10 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Troubleshooting - ge neral
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting - general general cobas s b 121 system, including tubing, waste container, fter use, components of the coba container, fill port, etc., contain biological fluids and represent therefore a possible infectious risk. Handle these components with care and according to regulations surrounding potentially infectious materials. Suitable protective equipment, like laboratory clothing, protective gloves, protective goggles and if necess ary mouth protectors, must be worn to prevent direct contact with biological working materials. In addition, a face mask is required if there is a risk of splashes. Suitable disinfection and sterilisation procedures must be applied.
A diagnostics function is available to facilitate fault removal. Pressing this button lists suggestions for the fault removal. e
An exact description of this function can be found in the Reference manual in in chapter System, section Tools > Diag nostics!

System stops
General information During situations when the proper function of the analyzer is not possible, System stops are displayed on the screen. The purpose is to display the errors, to remove the cause of the System stops and to bring the analyzer back to "Ready". A stop of all running actions will occur if danger for the user (e.g. by an overflow of the waste while opening the docking mechanism of the waste container) or for the analyzer exists or the proper operation of the analyzer is not possible because of technical problems. If proper operation is not possible, but the complete control of the functions of the analyzer is available (e.g. temperature alarm, measuring chamber cover open, flap open, fill level alarm) all running actions will be finished and Mix 1 will be aspirated into the measuring chamber; the resulting measuring data will be marked resp. discarded. Unrecoverable Unrecoverable System stops remain on the screen and fulfill an emergency program if possible, so that the analyzer stays operating (wetting of the electrodes / keeping the tubing free). It is possible to access the menu "System" if no automatic act ions are currently performed. When changing to the menu "System" during a "System stop", the "System stop" will not be b e terminated, but reactivated when the menu "System" is closed again. If e.g. there is a change from a "Temperature "Temperature system stop" to the menu "System" and the menu "System" is closed again, the analyzer will display the system stop "Temperature" "Temperature" again. In the case a system calibration has been started in the menu "System", it can not be conducted immediately because the "system stop" has to be removed first. After all "system stops" have been removed, "system stop consequence actions" will be executed. There is a common list of consequence actions, which impedes double actions. This means that if e.g. "washing" was activated several times, it is i s then performed only once. Possible consequence actions are:
