Glossary of Terms
BidirectionalBidirectional communication means that there is two-way communication from the Interrliner to the HOST (sample requests and results) and from the HOST to the Interrliner (confirmation or denial of sample requests). EDTA modeEDTA mode is used for undiluted samples collected in tubes with EDTA anticoagulant. The samples are automatically diluted on the Interrliner during aspiration. ESRESR is short for Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate. It is the amount of sedimentation (setting) of erythrocytes (red blood cells) in a blood column during a specified time. HazyHazy: A sedimentation is reported to be "hazy", when the boundary between blood plasma and erythrocytes can not be defined clearly. HostHOST: In this manual, the term HOST is used to indicate the computer system and associated software (LIMS) that provides the sample management for the laboratory. IVDIVD is short for In Vitro Diagnostic. This kind of diagnostic is performed on biological samples in a test tube, or more generally in a controlled environment outside a living organism. In vitro means in glass in Latin. MSDSSDS is short for Safety Data Sheet. In this type of SDS all kind of important data can be found on reagents. Temperature correctionTemperature correction: The sedimentation of blood cells is a temperature dependent process. To achieve comparable results, temperature correction should always be used. The ESR results are then corrected to the value they would have been at the standard temperature of 18.3°C. UnidirectionalUnidirectional communication means that there is only one-way communication from the Interrliner to the HOST. Only sample results and result related messages are send. WIWI is short for Work Instruction and is used with an index number for a range of work instructions. |
