Summary Statement of Deficiencies D5807 TEST REPORT CFR(s): 493.1291(d) Pertinent "reference intervals" or "normal" values, as determined by the laboratory performing the tests, must be available to the authorized person who ordered the tests and, if applicable, the individual responsible for using the test results. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on survey review of a patient's Complete Blood Count (CBC) test report and laboratory procedures and interview with the technical consultant, the reference range shown on the patient report was not the same as the approved reference range for a male hemoglobin in the procedure for one of one patient reviewed. Findings include: 1. Review of the reference range of the CBC test report from May 17, 2023, in the electronic medical record (EMR) for patient one (a 73-year-old male) showed the expected range was 14.0-17.2 grams per deciliter (g/dl). 2. Review of the "Sysmex XN-10" hematology procedure showed the approved hemoglobin reference range for a male is 13.5-17.5 g/dl. 3. Interview with the technical consultant on May 17, 2023, at 12:55 PM confirmed the reference range in the EMR was not consistent with the approved reference range in the procedure.
