Based on review of manufacturer instructions for use, laboratory's Recombiplastin (thromboplastin) new lot rollover studies, policies/procedures, prothrombin time (PT) test volumes and staff interview, the laboratory failed to ensure 2 of 20 donors used in the 2023 new Recombiplastin lot's normal mean study passed the laboratory's donor screening prior to being included in the calculations of the new lot's mean of PT normal range. Findings included: 1. Review of manufacturer instructions for use for Recombiplastin reagent (document 0020002950, revision 03/2019) revealed: "Expected Values: (Normal) Ranges were calculated as recommended by CLSI document C28-A. These results were obtained using a specific lot of reagent. Due to many variables which may affect clotting times, each laboratory should verify its own normal range." 2. Review of laboratory's Recombiplastin lot rollover studies for new lot N0138518 (expiration date 2025-01-31), conducted on 08/10/2023 revealed the following donor questionnaire was used to determine donor acceptability for inclusion in calculation of new lot's mean of PT normal range: Questionnaire included: "True or False: Are you a (sic) healthy? True or False: I do not have a coagulopathy. True or False: I do not take any medications designated "blood thinners". True or False: I do not bleed easily. True or False: I can participate in coagulation studies as "normal control patient." Patient Signature: __________ Date: ___________ Director/ Instructor: ________ Date: ___________ Circle one: Pass Reinstruct Failed" 3. Review of the donor questionnaires for patients used in the Recombiplastin lot's N0138518 establishment study of mean of PT normal range revealed the following 2 of 20 patients had responses related to coagulation issues: a. Patient number 2 responded as follows: "True or False: I do not have a coagulopathy." - documented response by circling "False" "True or False: I do not take any medications designated "blood thinners"." - documented response by circling "False" b. Patient number 3 responded as follows: "True or False: I do not bleed easily." - documented response by circling "False" 4. Further review of the above questionnaires revealed there was no documentation of Director/Instructor signature/date, or documentation of whether the patient passed, failed or was reinstructed during the screening process. 5. Review of laboratory's Recombiplastin lot rollover studies for new lot N0138518 revealed Patient 2 and 3 were included in the calculation of new lot's mean of PT normal range. -- 3 of 4 -- 6. Review of laboratory's policies/procedures revealed there were no protocols delineated for performing patient screening, nor criteria established for patients acceptability for inclusion in the establishment studies of the new lot's mean of PT normal range. 7. Review of laboratory's test volumes revealed the laboratory performed 3279 PT tests in 2023. 8. In an interview on 02/13/2024 at 1410 hours in the conference room, the laboratory's Technical Supervisor confirmed the findings. B. Based on review of laboratory's Recombiplastin (thromboplastin) new lot rollover studies, policies/procedures, prothrombin time (PT) test volumes and staff interview, the laboratory failed to ensure ACL Elite hemostasis instrument's INR (International Normalized Ratio) calculations were accurate for one of one new Recombiplastin lot numbers placed in use in 2023.

(b)(3)(ii) There is major preventive maintenance or replacement of critical parts that may influence test performance. (b)(3)(iii) Control materials reflect an unusual trend or shift, or are outside of the laboratory's acceptable limits, and other means of assessing and correcting unacceptable control values fail to identify and correct the problem. (b)(3)(iv) The laboratory's established schedule for verifying the reportable range for patient test results requires more frequent calibration verification.
