Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sample analyzer quality control, and in particular to a quality control system and a method for determining the status of a sample analyzer. Background Art

[0002] At present, the analysis and test results of the test samples are generally obtained by using a sample analyzer, but the sample analyzer is not permanently stable. Therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of the test results, in the prior art, the sample analyzer must be subjected to a quality control test, and the sample analyzer must be judged based on the quality control test results to determine whether it can work properly. Only when the sample analyzer is normal, the sample is placed in the sample analyzer for testing.

[0003] As for the quality control test process of the sample analyzer, generally, the sample analyzer is immediately subjected to quality control test after the sample analyzer is started. When multiple sample analyzers are subjected to quality control test at the same time, the user is required to manually move the quality control materials for quality control test. After the quality control test of one sample analyzer is completed, the quality control materials are manually moved to the next sample analyzer for quality control test. That is, during the quality control test of the sample analyzer, the user needs to wait in front of the sample analyzer for the test to be completed before transferring the quality control materials to the next sample analyzer for testing. In some cases, when the user is unable to move the quality control materials to the next sample analyzer in time, it will affect the time it takes for the sample analyzer to complete the quality control test, which is also the time it takes for the sample analyzer to test and analyze the test samples.

[0012] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application also provides a method for determining the state of a sample analyzer, which is applied to the quality control system as described above, comprising:

[0013] The processor controls the code scanning unit to scan the sample number of the test tube, and sends the sample number to the data management unit, so that the data management unit determines whether it is a quality control number based on the sample number of the test tube obtained;

[0014] The processor receives a quality control number, a quality control type and binding data of a quality control object, wherein the binding data is data of a sample analyzer to which the quality control object is bound;

[0015] The processor generates a transport direction and a transport path based on the binding data, controls the transport unit to transport the quality control object to the sample analyzer bound to the quality control object according to the transport direction and the transport path, and instructs the sample analyzer to perform a quality control test on the quality control object to obtain a quality control test result;

[0016] The processor sets the state of the detection mode of the sample analyzer corresponding to the quality control object that has undergone quality control testing based on the quality control test results, and determines whether to continue to instruct quality control objects of other quality control types to be transported to the sample analyzer for quality control testing according to the received quality control requirements.

[0017] The step of the processor determining the state of the sample analyzer according to the quality control test result comprises:

[0018] The processor obtains the quality control test result, and determines whether the sample analyzer is in an out-of-control state or in a controlled state based on a preset out-of-control rule and the quality control test result; wherein the out-of-control rule includes one or more combinations of a warning rule, a random error rule, and a systematic error rule;

[0019] In response to the quality control test result of the sample analyzer on the quality control object being out of control, the processor marks the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer as out of control and instructs the sample analyzer to stop executing the corresponding detection mode;

[0020] or,

[0021] In response to the quality control test result of the quality control object by the sample analyzer being under control, the processor does not restrict the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer.

[0022] The quality control type of the quality control object corresponds to the detection mode of the sample analyzer, and the quality control objects of multiple quality control types include a first quality control object and a second quality control object, the first quality control object corresponds to the first detection mode of the sample analyzer, and the second quality control object corresponds to the second detection mode of the sample analyzer;

[0023] In response to the quality control test result of the sample analyzer on the first quality control object being out of control, the processor marks the first detection mode of the sample analyzer as an out of control state, and instructs the sample analyzer to stop executing the first detection mode;

[0024] and / or,

[0025] In response to the quality control test result of the second quality control material by the sample analyzer being under control, the processor does not restrict the second detection mode of the sample analyzer.

[0026] The processor instructs the sample analyzer to perform a quality control test on the quality control material, and the step of obtaining the quality control test result includes:

[0027] The processor instructs:

[0028] The sample analyzer obtains the sample number of the test tube in the test tube rack, and when the sample number obtained is the quality control number, determines whether the quality control number is bound to the sample analyzer; when the quality control number is bound to the sample analyzer, the sample analyzer performs a quality control test on the quality control object to obtain a quality control test result.

[0029] The processor generates a transport direction and a transport path based on the binding data, and controls the transport unit to transport the quality control object to the sample analyzer to which the quality control object is bound according to the transport direction and the transport path, and the step further includes:

[0030] The processor generates a transport direction and a transport path based on the binding data, and controls the transport unit to transport the quality control object to one of the sample analyzers to which the quality control object is bound according to the transport direction and the transport path;

[0031] The processor regenerates the transport direction and the transport path based on the received unloading information and the binding data, and controls the transport unit to transport the quality control object to other sample analyzers to which the quality control object is bound according to the regenerated transport direction and the transport path, wherein the unloading information is used to characterize that one of the sample analyzers bound to the quality control object and which has undergone quality control testing has completed the quality control testing and needs to unload the quality control object.

[0032] The binding data is data that the data management unit pre-binds the quality control number of the quality control object with at least one sample analyzer and stores in the quality control file.

[0033] Wherein, in response to the quality control test result of the sample analyzer on the quality control object being out of control, the processor marks the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer as out of control, and instructs the sample analyzer to stop executing the corresponding detection mode, the step further includes:

[0034] Modifying the out-of-control rule to obtain a new out-of-control rule, and based on the new out-of-control rule and the quality control test result of the sample analyzer, the processor determines whether the sample analyzer is in an out-of-control state or in a controlled state;

[0035] In response to the sample analyzer being in the controlled state, the processor restores the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer.

[0036] Beneficial effects of the present application: Different from the prior art, the quality control system is applied to perform quality control tests on multiple sample analyzers, including a loading unit, a code scanning unit, an unloading unit, a transport unit and a processor. Among them, the transport unit is used to transport quality control materials to transport quality control materials to at least one of the loading unit, the code scanning unit, the unloading unit and multiple sample analyzers. When the sample analyzer performs quality control tests, the quality control materials are automatically provided to the sample analyzer without manual participation, thereby improving the degree of automation of the quality control system and enhancing the user's experience of using the quality control system. At the same time, the sample analyzer can perform quality control tests on quality control materials of various quality control types, and the quality control type of the quality control material corresponds to the detection mode of the sample analyzer. When the processor sets the sample analyzer to the detection mode corresponding to the quality control material that has been subjected to quality control testing as an out-of-control state, the sample analyzer is instructed to stop the corresponding detection mode, thereby avoiding the sample from entering the sample analyzer for detection in the detection mode, obtaining inaccurate detection results, and affecting the user's subsequent operations based on the detection results. The processor sets the state of the sample analyzer, limits the detection mode of the sample analyzer, and instructs other quality control types of quality control objects to judge other detection modes of the sample analyzer, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the sample analyzer, avoiding situations that affect the sample detection results, and improving the automation of the quality control test process of the sample analyzer. At the same time, only the detection mode of the sample analyzer that is out of control is limited, and other detection modes of the sample analyzer are not limited, so as to avoid the situation where only one detection mode in the sample analyzer is out of control and the entire sample analyzer stops operating, thereby improving the overall utilization rate of the sample analyzer and reducing the cost of idle devices.

[0051] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. It is particularly noted that the following examples are only used to illustrate the present application, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. Similarly, the following examples are only some embodiments of the present application rather than all embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0053] In the description of this application, it is necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "set", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the above-mentioned specific meanings belonging to this application can be connected according to specific circumstances.

[0054] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first embodiment of the quality control system of the present application. The quality control system 1 is used to perform quality control tests on multiple sample analyzers 2. The sample analyzers may include but are not limited to blood analyzers, immunoassay analyzers, and coagulation analyzers.

[0055] The quality control system 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a loading unit 11, a code scanning unit 12, an unloading unit 13, a transport unit 14 and a processor (not shown). In this embodiment, the processor is a CTS (Central Trasportation System), and in other embodiments, the processor may also be other data processing systems.

[0056] Among them, the transport unit 14 is used to transport quality control materials to transport the quality control materials to at least one of the loading unit 11, the scanning unit 12, the unloading unit 13 and the multiple sample analyzers 2. In this embodiment, the loading unit 11 is used to load test tubes, so that the test tubes enter the scanning unit 12 through the loading unit 11; the scanning unit 12 is used to scan the test tubes to determine whether the test tubes are samples to be tested by users who need to undergo normal testing to obtain analysis results, or quality control materials that need to undergo quality control tests. The unloading unit 13 is an area for unloading the user's samples to be tested and quality control materials. The processor is used to control the transport direction and transport path of the quality control materials by the transport unit 14, receive data transmitted by the scanning unit 12 and the sample analyzer 2, and control the subsequent operations of the scanning unit 12 and the sample analyzer 2 based on the data.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, the code scanning unit 12, the loading unit 11 and the unloading unit 13 can be arranged on one side of the plurality of sample analyzers 2, so that after the test tube is subjected to the quality control system 1 by the loading unit 11, it enters the code scanning unit 12 by the shortest path for code scanning. If the processor determines that the substance carried by the test tube is a quality control substance, the quality control substance can reach the sample analyzer 2 by the shortest route for quality control testing. In other embodiments, the loading unit 11, the code scanning unit 12 and the unloading unit 13 can also be arranged between the plurality of sample analyzers 2, and the present application does not limit the specific arrangement positions of the loading unit 11, the code scanning unit 12 and the unloading unit 13.

[0058] Further, the processor is used to set the state of the sample analyzer 2 to be in a controlled state or an out-of-control state. The state of the sample analyzer 2 is an out-of-control state, which means that at this time, there is some error in the sample analyzer 2, which will cause errors in the test results of the sample. The state of the sample analyzer 2 is in a controlled state, which means that at this time, all functions of the sample analyzer 2 are complete, and the sample can be accurately tested to obtain accurate test results.

[0059] In this embodiment, the sample analyzer 2 can perform quality control tests on at least one quality control type of quality control material, and the type of the quality control material corresponds to the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2. That is, a sample analyzer 2 has multiple detection modes, and can perform different detection modes on different samples to obtain the detection results of the samples. In order to ensure the accuracy of the sample detection results, the sample analyzer 2 needs to be subjected to quality control tests at least at one time before, during, and after the sample detection process to ensure that the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2 is normal. The processor can set the state of the sample analyzer 2 according to the quality control test results of the sample analyzer 2.

[0060] The processor sets the detection mode corresponding to the quality control object that has been subjected to the quality control test by the sample analyzer 2 to an out-of-control state according to the quality control test result, and at the same time, the processor also instructs the sample analyzer 2 to stop the detection mode. When the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the quality control object is an out-of-control state, the processor will synchronously instruct the sample analyzer 2 to stop executing the detection mode corresponding to the quality control object, so as to prevent the sample analyzer 2 from still being able to perform sample detection in the out-of-control detection mode, obtain inaccurate detection results, and affect the user's subsequent operations based on the detection results.

[0061] Among them, the processor can also determine whether to continue to instruct other quality control types of quality control materials to be transported to the sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing according to the received quality control requirements. As mentioned above, the sample analyzer 2 can perform quality control tests on quality control materials of at least one quality control type. The sample analyzer 2 has at least one detection mode. When the processor sets one of the detection modes of the sample analyzer 2 to an out-of-control state, it does not affect other detection modes in the sample analyzer 2. When the processor receives a quality control requirement, that is, it is necessary to use other detection modes of the sample analyzer 2, the processor can instruct the quality control material corresponding to the detection mode to be tested for quality control to be transported to the sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing. If the state of the detection mode is in a controlled state, the processor does not limit the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2, that is, the processor will stop the out-of-control detection mode in the sample analyzer 2, but will not limit the controlled detection mode in the sample analyzer 2. Avoid the situation where the sample analyzer 2 stops working as a whole due to only one of the detection modes being out of control, which consumes costs, and improves the working efficiency of the sample analyzer 2.

[0062] In this embodiment, the quality control system 1 includes a loading unit 11, a code scanning unit 12, an unloading unit 13, a transport unit 14 and a processor. The processor controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2, thereby improving the degree of automation in providing the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2 and enhancing the user experience of the quality control system 1. At the same time, the processor receives the quality control test results of the sample analyzer 2 using the quality control material for the quality control test, and sets the state of the sample analyzer 2 to an out-of-control state or a controlled state based on the quality control test results, and controls the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2. Avoid the sample analyzer 2 from performing an out-of-control detection mode, thereby obtaining inaccurate sample detection results, and affecting the user's subsequent operations based on the sample detection results. Improve the detection efficiency and accuracy of the sample analyzer 2 for the sample.

[0063] Optionally, the transport unit 14 includes a plurality of transport track segments, which are respectively arranged corresponding to the loading unit 11, the code scanning unit 12, the unloading unit 13 and the sample analyzer 2 for transporting the quality control objects.

[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, the transport track segment A and the transport track segment B are set corresponding to the position of the sample analyzer 2, the transport track segment C is set corresponding to the position of the code scanning unit 12, the transport track segment D is set corresponding to the position of the loading unit 11, and the transport track segment E is set corresponding to the position of the unloading unit 13. Thus, the processor can control the transport track segments at the corresponding positions to transport the quality control materials, and transport the quality control materials to the sample analyzer 2 or other places. Dividing the transport unit 14 into multiple transport track segments also facilitates the maintenance of the transport track segments when problems occur, without the need to repair the entire transport unit 14, thereby simplifying the difficulty of repairing the transport unit 14 and reducing the maintenance cost.

[0065] The processor is further configured to control the transport track segment to transport the quality control object in the direction in which the length of the transport track segment extends, or to control the transport track segment to transport the quality control object in the opposite direction in which the length of the transport track segment extends. Figure 1As shown, the direction in which the length of the transport track segment extends is the direction in which the loading unit 11 points to the sample analyzer 2, and the opposite direction in which the length of the transport track segment extends is the direction in which the sample analyzer 2 points to the unloading unit 13. Thus, the processor can control the directions of the reagent transport of several transport track segments to be inconsistent at the same time. For example, when the reagent is loaded by the loading unit 11, and the test tube is transported by the transport track segment D to the transport track segment C corresponding to the code scanning unit 12, after the code scanning unit 12 scans the test tube and determines that the substance carried by the test tube is a common sample rather than a quality control substance, the processor controls the transport direction of the transport track segment C and the transport track segment D to be the direction in which the code scanning unit 12 points to the unloading unit 13, and the transport track segment transports the common sample to the unloading unit 13 for unloading; and when the code scanning unit 12 determines that the substance carried by the test tube is a quality control substance, the processor controls the transport direction of the transport track segment C and the transport track segment B to be the direction in which the code scanning unit 12 points to the sample analyzer 2, and the transport track segment transports the quality control substance to the sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing.

[0066] The processor controls the transport direction of the transport track segment. The transport directions of multiple transport track segments may be inconsistent, which makes it convenient for the processor to control each transport track segment to simultaneously transport the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2, the code scanning unit 12 or the unloading unit 13, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the transport unit 14 for the quality control material.

[0067] Optionally, the code scanning unit 12 is further used to obtain binding data of the quality control object and transmit the binding data to the processor, wherein the binding data is data of multiple sample analyzers 2 to which the quality control object is bound.

[0068] The processor is used to receive the binding data transmitted by the code scanning unit 12, and control the transportation direction and transportation path of the transportation track segment based on the binding data and quality control requirements.

[0069] Among them, since the quality control system 1 is used to supply quality control materials to multiple sample analyzers 2, and each sample analyzer 2 can perform quality control tests on at least one quality control material, that is, there are overlapping types of quality control materials for quality control tests of multiple sample analyzers 2, and the quality control system 1 can supply the same quality control material to multiple sample analyzers 2. In order to improve the efficiency of the transport unit 14 in supplying quality control materials to the sample analyzers 2 to be tested for quality control, in an embodiment of the present application, the code scanning unit 12 scans the test tube. If it is determined that the substance carried by the test tube is a quality control material, the code scanning unit 12 can also scan the test tube to obtain the binding data of the quality control material, and transmit the binding data to the processor. After receiving the binding data, the processor determines the multiple sample analyzers 2 bound to the quality control material based on the binding data, and controls the transportation direction and transportation path of the transport track segment according to the quality control requirements. The quality control material will be bound to multiple sample analyzers 2, and multiple sample analyzers 2 will perform the same detection mode. However, in actual applications, sometimes it is not necessary for all sample analyzers 2 to perform this detection mode. Therefore, the quality control requirements also include which one or which sample analyzers 2 need to perform quality control tests, so that the processor generates the transportation direction and transportation path based on the binding data and quality control requirements.

[0070] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a structural diagram of the second embodiment of the quality control system of the present application. In this embodiment, three sample analyzers 2 are arranged on the transport unit 14, namely the first sample analyzer 21, the second sample analyzer 22 and the third sample analyzer 23. The code scanning unit 12 is arranged on the side of the third sample analyzer 23 away from the second sample analyzer 22. The code scanning unit 12 scans the quality control object, obtains that the quality control object is bound to the first sample analyzer 21 and the third sample analyzer 23, transmits the binding data of the quality control object to the processor, and the processor controls the transport track segment to transport the quality control object. The processor controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control object through the transport path of "transport track segment C-transport track segment F-transport track segment B-transport track segment A-transport track segment D", so as to transport the quality control object to the third sample analyzer 23 and the first sample analyzer 21 for quality control testing, and skips the second sample analyzer 22 to which the quality control object is not bound. The quality control material is then accurately transported to the bound sample analyzer 2 , and the unbound sample analyzer 2 is skipped, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the transportation unit 14 for the quality control material.

[0071] In another embodiment, the scanning unit 12 may obtain that the quality control object is bound to the first sample analyzer 21, the second sample analyzer 22 and the third sample analyzer 23, but the quality control requirement is that only the first sample analyzer 21 and the third sample analyzer 23 are needed to perform quality control tests. At this time, the processor also controls the transportation unit 14 to transport the quality control object through the transportation path of "transport track segment C-transport track segment F-transport track segment B-transport track segment A-transport track segment D".

[0072] The present application also provides a method for determining the status of a sample analyzer, which is applied to the quality control system 1 in the above embodiment. Figure 3 , Figure 3 The method for determining the state of a sample analyzer provided in the embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps:

[0073] S1: Get the sample number of the test tube and determine whether the sample number is a quality control number.

[0074] Depend on Figure 1 As shown, the test tube enters the code scanning unit 12 through the loading unit 11, and the processor controls the code scanning unit 12 to obtain the sample number of the test tube. Then, the code scanning unit 12 uploads the obtained sample number to the data management department, and the data management department compares the sample number with the quality control number in the quality control file. If the sample number of the test tube corresponds to the quality control number in the quality control file, that is, the sample number of the test tube is the same as a quality control number in the quality control file, then the test tube located in the code scanning unit 12 is a quality control object, and the process goes to step S2. If the sample number of the test tube does not correspond to the quality control number in the quality control file, the substance carried by the test tube is not a quality control object, and the test tube is determined as a common sample and transported to the sample analyzer for routine sample testing, or the test tube is directly transported to the unloading unit 13 for unloading.

[0075] Among them, the data management unit can be a DMS (Data Management System). In this embodiment, the processor and the data management unit can be different servers; in another embodiment, the processor and the data management unit can also be integrated into the same server to improve the data transmission efficiency and security between the processor and the data management unit.

[0076] In this embodiment, the data management department may create a quality control file before the code scanning unit 12 scans the test tube, wherein the quality control file may include a combination of one or more groups of data such as a quality control number, a quality control type, and binding data. The quality control number may be a sample number starting with a special letter. After the data management department receives the sample number, if it recognizes that the sample number starts with a special letter, it determines that the sample number corresponds to the quality control number in the quality control file, and the test tube is a quality control object. The quality control type and binding data in the quality control file can be pre-bound with the quality control number, that is, once the quality control number is obtained, the quality control type and binding data of the quality control object can be directly obtained.

[0077] In one embodiment, after receiving the sample number of the test tube, the data management department may compare the sample number with the quality control number in the quality control file to determine whether the test tube is a quality control object. In other embodiments, if the test tube is a quality control object, the test tube includes not only the sample number but also the quality control type and binding data, and the code scanning unit 12 obtains all the data on the test tube and uploads all the data to the data management department. The data management department compares the received sample number, quality control type and binding data with the quality control number in the quality control file, as well as the quality control type and binding data bound to the quality control number. When all the data correspond, the test tube is determined to be a quality control object.

[0078] S2: The processor receives the quality control number, quality control type and binding data of the quality control object.

[0079] When the data management department determines that the sample number of the test tube is the quality control number, the quality control number, quality control type and binding data in the quality control file are transmitted to the processor.

[0080] S3: The processor generates a transport direction and a transport path, and controls the transport of the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing to obtain quality control test results.

[0081] In step S2, the data management unit transmits the binding data of the quality control object to the processor, and the processor can generate a transportation direction and a transportation path according to the sample analyzer 2 bound to the quality control object, control the transportation direction of the transportation track segment of the transportation unit 14, and transport the quality control object to one of the bound sample analyzers 2 based on the transportation path.

[0082] like Figure 2As shown, the processor determines that the quality control material is bound to the third sample analyzer 23 and the first sample analyzer 21 according to the binding data, and then generates a transportation path, controls the transportation unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the third sample analyzer 23 and the first sample analyzer 21, and the third sample analyzer 23 and the first sample analyzer 21 perform quality control tests on the quality control material. The processor controls the transportation unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the bound sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing according to the sample analyzer 2 bound to the quality control number, and skips the unbound sample analyzer 2, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the quality control system 1 for the quality control material.

[0083] In one embodiment, the processor regenerates the transport direction and transport path based on the received unloading information and binding data, and controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control material to other sample analyzers 2 to which the quality control material is bound according to the regenerated transport direction and transport path, wherein the unloading information is used to characterize that one of the sample analyzers 2 that is bound to the quality control material and has undergone quality control testing has completed the quality control test and needs to unload the quality control material.

[0084] Please continue reading Figure 2 , the processor instructs the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the third sample analyzer 23 for quality control testing according to the transport path. After the third sample analyzer 23 completes the quality control test, the unloading information is uploaded to the processor. It is intended to express to the processor that the third sample analyzer 23 has completed the quality control test, and the quality control material needs to be unloaded and transported to other sample analyzers 2. The processor receives the unloading information, and based on the binding data of the quality control material, the quality control material is also bound to the first sample analyzer 21. The processor now generates the transport direction and the transport path of "transport track segment B-transport track segment A-transport track segment D". The processor instructs the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the first sample analyzer 21 according to the new transport path.

[0085] In one embodiment, the processor can also control the transportation of the quality control material by the transport unit 14 according to the current state of the sample analyzer 2. For example, the processor obtains that the quality control material is bound to the third sample analyzer 23 and the first sample analyzer 21. At the same time, the processor obtains that the third sample analyzer 23 is currently performing a quality control test of another quality control type of quality control material, or is performing a normal sample analysis. If the quality control material is transported to the third sample analyzer 23 at this time, it is necessary to wait for the third sample analyzer 23 to complete the operation before the quality control test can be performed on the quality control material. In this process, the quality control material needs to wait in the transport track section corresponding to the third sample analyzer 23, which will affect the efficiency of transporting the quality control material to multiple sample analyzers 2 in the quality control system 1. At the same time, the quality control material occupies the track section of the transport unit 14, affecting the transportation of the test tube by the transport unit 14.

[0086] Based on the above problems, this embodiment proposes that after obtaining the binding data of the quality control object, the processor further obtains the current state of the sample analyzer 2, thereby controlling the transportation of the quality control object by the transport unit 14. For example, when the processor obtains that the current state of the third sample analyzer 23 is busy, the processor can first control the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control object to the first sample analyzer 21 for quality control testing. After the test of the first sample analyzer 21 is completed and the third sample analyzer 23 is in an idle state, the processor controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control object to the third sample analyzer 23, thereby improving the efficiency of the quality control system 1 in transporting the quality control object and reducing the occupation of the track of the transport unit 14 by the quality control object.

[0087] Among them, the processor can also be integrated with a CMS (Control Management System) to record the current state of the sample analyzer 2. The current state of the sample analyzer 2 can also include whether the sample analyzer 2 is online, rather than temporarily or for a long time offline; whether the sample analyzer 2 has an immediate stop fault state; whether the sample analyzer 2 is in an automatic cleaning or maintenance state; whether the sample analyzer 2 is in a sample measurable interface; whether the sample analyzer 2 is in an automatic injection mode; or, whether the sample analyzer 2 is in a normal state of sleep and can be awakened by the processor. For example, after the processor obtains the binding data of the quality control object and determines the sample analyzer 2 bound to the quality control object, the CMS transmits the current states of multiple sample analyzers 2 determined by the processor to the processor, so that the processor can generate a transportation path according to the current state of the sample analyzer 2.

[0088] In another embodiment, the processor controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control object and also considers the distance between the sample analyzer 2 and the transport track section where the quality control object is located. Figure 2 , the quality control object is in the transport track section C. At this time, the processor determines that the second sample analyzer 22 and the first sample analyzer 21 are both sample analyzers 2 bound to the quality control object and both sample analyzers 2 are in a state where quality control testing can be performed. At this time, based on the fact that the second sample analyzer 22 is closer to the transport track section where the quality control object is located, the processor transport unit 14 first transports the quality control object to the second sample analyzer 22. This improves the transport efficiency of the transport unit 14 for the quality control object.

[0089] After the processor generates the transport direction and transport path, it controls the transport unit 14 to transport the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2 for quality control testing and obtains the quality control test results. The sample analyzer 2 uploads the quality control test results to the processor and enters step S4.

[0090] S4: The processor sets the state of the sample analyzer 2 based on the quality control transmission result.

[0091] Among them, based on the quality control test results, the processor sets the state of the sample analyzer in the detection mode corresponding to the quality control material for the quality control test, and determines whether to continue to instruct quality control materials of other quality control types to be transported to the sample analyzer for quality control testing according to the received quality control requirements.

[0092] In this embodiment, when the transport unit 14 transports the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2, the sample analyzer 2 performs a quality control test using the quality control material to obtain a quality control test result. The sample analyzer 2 uploads the quality control result to the processor, and the processor determines the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the quality control material based on the quality control test result, and determines whether the state of the sample analyzer 2 is in a controlled state or an out-of-control state.

[0093] Among them, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 1 is a flow chart of a second embodiment of the method for determining the state of a sample analyzer of the present application. In one embodiment, the step of the processor determining the state of the sample analyzer 2 according to the quality control test result includes:

[0094] S41: The quality control test result is transmitted to the processor, and the processor determines whether the sample analyzer 2 is in an out-of-control state or in a controlled state based on the preset out-of-control rule and the quality control test result.

[0095] Among them, the out-of-control rules include one or more combinations of warning rules, random error rules and systematic error rules.

[0096] The warning rules may specifically include the 1_2s rule, which represents the relationship between a quality control test result and X±2, where X is the standard average value of the quality control object tested. When the quality control test result of the quality control sample after the sample analyzer 2 performs a quality control test exceeds X±2, it indicates that the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 satisfies the 1_2s rule at this time.

[0097] Random error rules may include 1_2.5s rule, 1_3s rule, R_2s rule, etc., wherein the 1_2.5s rule means that when a quality control test result exceeds X±2.5, there is a random error in sample analyzer 2; the 1_3s rule means that when a quality control test result exceeds X±3, there is a random error in sample analyzer 2; the R_2s rule means that when the difference between two quality control test results exceeds 4, that is, when one quality control test result exceeds X+2 and the other quality control test result exceeds X-2, there is a random error in sample analyzer 2.

[0098] Systematic error rules may include 2_2s rule, 4_1s rule, 8_X rule, 10_X rule, 12_X rule, etc., wherein the 2_2s rule indicates that two consecutive quality control test results simultaneously exceed X+2 or X-2. At this time, it can be guessed that the test result of the sample analyzer 2 is biased toward one side of X, and it is determined that the sample analyzer 2 has a systematic error; the 4_1s rule indicates that four consecutive quality control test results of a quality control object exceed X+1 or X-1, and two consecutive quality control test results of two quality control objects exceed X+1 or X-1. At this time, it can also be determined that the sample analyzer 2 has a systematic error; the 8_X rule / 10_X rule / 12_X rule means that eight / ten / twelve consecutive quality control test results fall on the same side of X. At this time, it can also be determined that the sample analyzer 2 has a systematic error.

[0099] In this embodiment, the out-of-control rule of the processor may include a 1_2s rule and a 1_3s rule. When the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 satisfies the 1_2s rule and the 1_3s rule, the processor determines that the state of the sample analyzer 2 is an out-of-control state and enters step S42. When the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 satisfies the 1_2s rule but does not satisfy the 1_3s rule, or when the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 does not satisfy the 1_2s rule, the processor determines that the state of the sample analyzer 2 is an under-control state and enters step S43.

[0100] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a line graph of the quality control test results of this application. Among them, X=5.8 is the center line of the line graph, and two upper limits of +2s and +3s, and two lower limits of -2s and -3s are set in the line graph, and the quality control test results of the sample analyzer 2 are displayed in the form of plotted points on the line graph in chronological order. Figure 5 The midpoint A exceeds the upper limit of +2s, that is, the quality control test result corresponding to point A violates the 1_2s rule, while the other points in the line graph do not exceed the upper limit of +2s and the lower limit of -2s, indicating that the status of the sample analyzer 2 corresponding to the other points is in the controlled state. By displaying the quality control test status in the form of a line graph, it is more intuitive and convenient for the processor to make judgments.

[0101] Among them, when the processor's out-of-control rules include the 1_2s rule, the 1_2s rule can be a prerequisite rule for other rules in the processor's out-of-control rules. That is, the quality control test results must violate the 1_2s rule before the quality control test results and other rules can be judged. If the quality control test results do not violate the 1_2s rule, the state of the sample analyzer 2 can be directly judged as being in a controlled state without the need to judge other rules.

[0102] In other embodiments, the out-of-control rules of the processor may also include 1_2s rules, 1_2.5s rules, and 4_1s rules, etc. This application does not limit the specific rules included in the out-of-control rules, and users can match them according to their needs. When the out-of-control rules are modified, the upper and lower limits in the line graph should also be modified accordingly. Based on this, after the out-of-control rules are modified, the sample analyzer 2 that was originally in an out-of-control state may be restored to a controlled state.

[0103] S42: In response to the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the quality control material being out of control, the processor marks the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2 as being in an out of control state, and instructs the sample analyzer 2 to stop executing the corresponding detection mode.

[0104] Based on the quality control test results and the out-of-control rules, if the quality control test results meet the out-of-control rules, the processor marks the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2 as an out-of-control state. In this embodiment, the processor marks the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2 as an out-of-control state, which means that when the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2 performs sample detection, accurate detection results cannot be obtained. The processor will control the sample detection to not assign the sample that needs to perform the detection mode to the out-of-control sample analyzer 2, so as to avoid inaccurate detection results and improve the detection accuracy of the sample analyzer 2 for ordinary samples.

[0105] Further, it can be seen from the foregoing that the sample analyzer 2 can perform quality control tests on quality control materials of various quality control types, that is, the sample analyzer 2 has multiple detection modes. For the convenience of explanation, in this embodiment, the quality control materials of various quality control types include a first quality control material and a second quality control material, the first quality control material corresponds to the first detection mode of the sample analyzer 2, and the second quality control material corresponds to the second detection mode of the sample analyzer 2.

[0106] In one embodiment, if the processor determines that the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the first quality control object is out of control, the processor marks the first detection mode of the sample analyzer 2 as out of control and instructs the sample analyzer 2 to stop executing the first detection mode. At the same time, if the processor determines that the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the second quality control object is in control, that is, the second detection mode of the sample analyzer 2 is in control, the processor does not restrict the second detection mode of the sample analyzer 2. After the quality control test is completed, when the sample is delivered to the sample analyzer 2, the processor can control the allocation of samples corresponding to the second detection mode to the sample analyzer 2, and does not allocate samples corresponding to the first detection mode to the sample analyzer 2. That is, if one detection mode in the sample analyzer 2 is out of control, it will not affect other detection modes in the sample analyzer 2. The sample analyzer 2 can still detect samples in other detection modes, thereby improving the working efficiency of the sample analyzer 2.

[0107] S43: In response to the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 on the quality control material being under control, the processor does not restrict the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2.

[0108] Based on the quality control test results and out-of-control rules, if the quality control test results do not meet the out-of-control rules, the processor does not restrict the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2, the processor normally allocates samples to the sample analyzer 2, and the sample analyzer 2 normally detects the samples to obtain accurate detection results.

[0109] For further information, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 The process diagram of the third embodiment of the method for determining the state of the sample analyzer of the present application is as follows. When the processor instructs the sample analyzer 2 to perform a quality control test on the quality control material, the steps of obtaining the quality control test result include:

[0110] S61: the sample analyzer 2 obtains the sample number of the test tube in the test tube rack, and when the obtained sample number is a quality control number, determines whether the quality control number is bound to the sample analyzer 2.

[0111] The test tube rack is used to load quality control materials. In actual applications, the test tube rack loaded with test tubes will be scanned at the code scanning unit 12. When the processor determines that the test tube on the test tube rack is a quality control material, the transport unit 14 will transport the test tube rack loaded with the quality control material to the sample analyzer 2. However, during the transportation of the test tube rack by the transport unit 14, the user may manually take away the quality control material on the test tube rack, or the user may manually put a test tube that is not a quality control material into the test tube rack, that is, there may be a situation where there is a quality control material scanned in the code scanning unit 12, but there is no quality control material at the sample analyzer 2, or there may be a situation where a test tube that is not a quality control material is transported to the sample analyzer 2. Therefore, the sample analyzer 2 must first obtain the sample number on the test tube rack, and determine whether the sample number is a quality control number, and determine that the test tube on the test tube rack is a quality control material.

[0112] If the sample number of the test tube on the test tube rack is not the quality control number, the sample analyzer 2 will upload an error signal indicating that there is no quality control material on the test tube rack to the processor so that the processor can perform subsequent operations such as reallocating the quality control material, thereby improving the efficiency of the quality control system 1 in transporting quality control materials to the sample analyzer 2.

[0113] If the sample number of the test tube on the test tube rack is a quality control number, the sample analyzer 2 determines that there is a quality control material on the test tube rack, and the sample analyzer 2 further determines whether the quality control material on the test tube rack is bound to the sample analyzer 2. If so, the process proceeds to step S62. If not, the sample analyzer 2 uploads an error message to the processor indicating that the quality control material on the test tube rack is not bound to the sample analyzer 2.

[0114] When the sample analyzer 2 determines whether the sample number of the test tube on the test tube rack is the quality control number, the sample analyzer 2 may recognize that the sample number of the test tube begins with a special letter, and then determine that the sample number of the test tube is the quality control number. Alternatively, the sample analyzer 2 uploads the sample number of the test tube to the data management department, and the data management department compares the sample number with the quality control number in the quality control file and returns the comparison conclusion to the sample analyzer 2.

[0115] S62: The sample analyzer 2 performs a quality control test on the quality control material to obtain a quality control test result.

[0116] In response to the presence of a quality control material on the test tube rack, and the quality control material on the test tube rack is bound to the sample analyzer 2, the sample analyzer 2 performs a quality control test on the quality control material to obtain a quality control test result, and then the processor evaluates the detection mode state of the sample analyzer 2 corresponding to the quality control material. For the specific steps of the processor evaluating the detection mode state of the sample analyzer 2 according to the quality control test result, please refer to step S41, which will not be repeated in this application.

[0117] For further information, see Figure 7 , Figure 7 It is a flow chart of the fourth embodiment of the method for judging the state of the sample analyzer of the present application. As can be seen from step S41, the out-of-control rule in the processor is changeable. Therefore, if the out-of-control rule in the processor is changed, the sample analyzer 2 may be restored from the out-of-control state to the controlled state, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0118] S71: Modify the out-of-control rule to obtain a new out-of-control rule, and determine the state of the sample analyzer 2 based on the new out-of-control rule and the quality control test result.

[0119] Among them, based on the user's requirements for detection accuracy, the user will modify the out-of-control rule, that is, re-match the warning rule, random error rule and system error rule in the out-of-control rule to obtain a new out-of-control rule. Based on the new out-of-control rule and the quality control test results, the processor re-judges the state of the sample analyzer 2.

[0120] For example, the old out-of-control rule includes the 1_2s rule and the 1_2.5s rule, and the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 is X+2.6. At this time, the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 satisfies the 1_2s rule and the 1_2.5s rule, so the processor determines that the state of the sample analyzer 2 is out of control. The new out-of-control rule includes the 1_2s rule and the 1_3s rule, and the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 is still X+2.6. At this time, the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 satisfies the 1_2s rule, but does not satisfy the 1_3s rule. Based on the new out-of-control rule, the processor determines that the state of the sample analyzer 2 is in control, that is, the sample analyzer 2 is restored from the out-of-control state to the controlled state. Enter step S72.

[0121] In other embodiments, if the quality control test result of the sample analyzer 2 is X+2.6, and the old out-of-control rules include the 1_2s rule and the 1_3s rule, and the new out-of-control rules include the 1_2s rule and the 1_2.5s rule, then the state of the sample analyzer 2 changes from the controlled state to the out-of-control state, and the processor stops the detection mode of the sample analyzer 2.

[0122] S72 : In response to the sample analyzer 2 being in the controlled state, the processor restores the detection mode corresponding to the sample analyzer 2 .

[0123] Among them, based on the old out-of-control rule, the processor sets the sample analyzer 2 to an out-of-control state and controls the sample analyzer 2 to stop executing the corresponding detection mode. After the out-of-control rule is modified, the processor re-judges the state of the sample analyzer 2 based on the new out-of-control rule. In response to the sample analyzer 2 changing from an out-of-control state to a controlled state, the processor cancels the instruction for the sample analyzer 2 to stop executing the corresponding detection mode and restores the corresponding detection mode of the sample analyzer 2. Then, in the process of the sample analyzer 2 detecting the sample, the processor assigns the sample analyzer 2 a sample of the corresponding detection mode.

[0124] In summary, the method for judging the status of the sample analyzer in the embodiment of the present application is that, first, the quality control system 1 first judges the test tube, and when it is judged that the test tube is a quality control object, the quality control object is transported to the sample analyzer 2. And the transportation route is planned according to the sample analyzer 2 bound to the quality control object, so as to improve the efficiency of transporting the quality control object. Secondly, the sample analyzer 2 identifies the test tube on the test tube rack, and when it is judged that there is a quality control object on the test tube rack, it further judges whether the quality control object is bound to the sample analyzer 2, so as to avoid the sample analyzer 2 using an unbound quality control object for quality control testing, which affects the function of the sample analyzer 2 itself, or affects the quality control test results and thus misjudges the status of the sample analyzer 2, thereby improving the safety of the sample analyzer 2 and the accuracy of the quality control system 1. Finally, the processor determines whether the state of the sample analyzer 2 is in a controlled state or out of control state based on the quality control test results and out-of-control rules of the sample analyzer 2. When the sample analyzer 2 is in an out-of-control state, the corresponding detection mode of the sample analyzer 2 is stopped to avoid the sample analyzer 2 obtaining inaccurate detection results after performing corresponding detection mode detection on the sample, affecting the user's subsequent operations based on the detection results, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the sample analyzer 2.
