Task
Default selected/highlighted allows you to record WBC differential, RBC morphology, and PLT morphology. Select/highlight Estimate to perform for WBC and/or PLT. Deselect what you do not need to perform and not show during printing
Identification
Fill indentification information that needs to show during printing
Instrument
Default task selections will only show WBCUN (Uncorrected). This needs to be filled for absolute concentration calculations
When performing the WBC differential and nRBCs are counted, then a WBCC (Corrected) count will automatically be calcuated and displayed in this area
If WBC Estimate task is selected, then a WBCEST (Esitmate) area will show and will be automatically calculated when perofrming this task
If PLT Estimate task is selected, then a PLTEST (Esitmate) area will show and will be automatically calculated when perofrming this task
Esitmates
*This area only shows if "Estimate" tasks are selected
White Blood Cell Estimate
Record your counts in the larger box to the right. Input keyboard key "1" for every field you observe and "2" for every WBC/nucleated cell counted. Results are automatically calculated below this box
Change keyboard keys for "Field" and "WBC" to your workflow. Change "Factor" to adjust how the WBCEST is calcuated. WBCEST is calculated as the "Avg WBC" multiplied by the "Factor"
Platelet Estimate
Record your counts in the larger box to the right. Input keyboard key "1" for every field you observe and "3" for every PLT counted. Results are automatically calculated below this box
Change keyboard keys for "Field" and "PLT" to your workflow. Change "Factor" to adjust how the PLTEST is calcuated. PLTEST is calculated as the "Avg PLT" multiplied by the "Factor"
White Blood Cells
In the table there is a "Key" column that corresponds to the keyboard key to use when counting the "Cell Type". Feel free to change these keys to work better with your workflow. If a "Cell Type" is missing, then click "+ Add Cell Type" at the bottom of the table - be sure to input a "Key" value
Absolute (#) counts and relative (%) counts are calculated automatically as you input your differential. The grayed "Cell Types" are separate calcuations and are not included in the "Total" at the bottom of the table
Begin performing your differential by clicking into the "Differential" input box. Record your "Cell Type" in this box by typing the respective "Key". The box will show a green border once you reach 100 WBC cells counted (nRBCs not included). This "Differential" input area will not show during printing
For WBC Morphology, click to highlight the morphologies present. When printing the report, the highlted morphologies will show as a darker font
Is a "Pathologist Review" required? If yes, then click the words and record your comments in the input box. Record any other comments in this box
Red Blood Cells
Evaluate the respective RBC morphology by clicking the respective grading: "SL" = slight, "MD" = moderate, "MK" = marked. Toggle between "SL, MD, MK" and "1+, 2+, 3+" by clicking the type in the top right
Click to hightlight any other RBC morphologies present (e.g. Basophilic Stippling, Howell Jolly, etc)
Record any RBC comments in the input box. Any comments recorded will show during printing
Platelets
Evaluate your platelet estimate by clicking the appropriate semiquantitative level
Click to hightlight any PLT morphologies present (e.g. Giant Platelets, Platelet Clumps, etc)
Record any PLT comments in the input box. Any comments recorded will show during printing
