This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on a review of calibration records, the manufacturer's instruction guide, and an interview with the Testing Personnel (TP) and Technical Consultant (TC), the laboratory failed to perform and document two calibrations in 2017, as required by the manufacturer. The findings include: 1. A review of the Medonic Hematology analyzer calibration records revealed calibrations were performed on 5/3/2016, 11/23/2016, and 2/24/2018 (fifteen months later). There was no documentation of calibrations performed in 2017. 2. The Medonic instruction guide in section 7 revealed calibrations should be performed every six months. 3. During an interview on 5/17 /2018 at 10:18 AM, the TP and TC reviewed the Medonic calibration records and confirmed that calibrations for 2017 were not performed because the standing order for the calibrators was discontinued.
