The tech in chemistry mixes 1 mL of diluent with 1mL of sample to make his/her first
dilution, then he takes 1 mL of this dilution and mixes it with 1 mL of diluent to make his
second dilution. He takes 1 mL of the second dilution and mixes with 1 mL of diluent. He
now has a _______ dilution and he just did a _________ dilution. correct answers 1/8,
serial
You just pulled off the results of the CMP on Mr Doe and you notice on the printout that
the AST and ALT results are too high for the analyzer to read. Your next step is to do a
dilution on this sample and reload it in the analyzer. You decide on a 1 to 5 dilution, you
need at least 100 uL (minimum volume). Which one of these scenarios is correct?
correct answers You mix 50 uL of sample with 200 uL of diluent
Serum glucose determinations are done on samples from a control pool each day for 30
days. Quality control statistics are then calculated. The mean is 100 mg/dL and the
standard deviation is 4 mg/dL. These statistics are used to label a quality control chart
for the mean and +2 SD. Samples from the same control pool are then assayed each
day along with patient samples, and control results are plotted on the chart. Results for
the first 10 days are as follows: correct answers 92 and 108
Lean Six Sigma is a combination of strategies designed to: correct answers Promote
measurable improvement
Serum glucose determinations are done on samples from a control pool each day for 30
days. Quality control statistics are then calculated. The mean is 100 mg/dL and the
standard deviation is 4 mg/dL. These statistics are used to label a quality control chart
for the mean and +2 SD. Samples from the same control pool are then assayed each
day along with patient samples, and control results are plotted on the chart. Results for
the first 10 days are as follows:

occur
The majority of laboratory errors occur in the: correct answers preanalytic phase
A test's "negativity in the absence of the disease" is termed its: correct answers
Specificity
The Lean Six Sigma method of process improvement assumes that processes are
inherently dynamic. correct answers true
