Summary Statement of Deficiencies D0000 This Statement of Deficiencies was created as a result of an on-site CLIA recertification survey conducted at your facility on August 21, 2024. The findings and conclusions of any investigation by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health shall not be construed as prohibiting any criminal or civil investigations, actions or other claims for relief that may be available to any party under applicable federal, state, or local laws. D5441 CONTROL PROCEDURES CFR(s): 493.1256(a)(b)(c)(g) (a) For each test system, the laboratory is responsible for having control procedures that monitor the accuracy and precision of the complete analytic process. (b) The laboratory must establish the number, type, and frequency of testing control materials using, if applicable, the performance specifications verified or established by the laboratory as specified in 493.1253(b)(3). (c) The control procedures must-- (c)(1) Detect immediate errors that occur due to test system failure, adverse environmental conditions, and operator performance. (c)(2) Monitor over time the accuracy and precision of test performance that may be influenced by changes in test system performance and environmental conditions, and variance in operator performance. (g) The laboratory must document all control procedures performed. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on a review of the the Individualized Quality Control Plan (IQCP), a review of the laboratory's control logs, a review of the i-Stat print outs, a review of patient test results, and an interview with the technical consultant, the laboratory failed to perform quality control (QC) for the Activated Clotting Time (ACT) testing on the i-Stat as directed to ensure accurate test performance. Findings include: 1. The director approved IQCP plan for ACT testing on the i-Stat indicated that two levels of an external quality control were to be run with "each new lot, each new shipment, every 30 days after the lot/shipment is in use, and after any system maintenance and Statement of Deficiencies (X1) Provider/Supplier/CLIA Identification Number (X3) Date Survey Completed Name of Provider or Supplier Street Address, City, State -- 1 of 6 -- software upgrades (CLEW)." The laboratory failed to document any QC results on the control logs between February 29, 2024 and August 20, 2024. 2. A review of the IQCP for ACT testing on the i-Stat found that the initial IQCP studies were performed between January 25, 2024 through March 6, 2024. 3. A review of the laboratory control logs, found control lots 261161 (Level 1) and 271160 (Level 2), and cartridge lot R23349 were used between January 25, 2024 and February 29, 2024. IQCP QC results between February 29, 2024 and March 6, 2024 were not documented on the control logs. 4. Control results for control lots 261165 (Level 1) and 271165 (Level 2), and cartridge lot R24089 were documented on August 20, 2024. 5. A review of the i-Stat print outs from March 2024 through May 2024, found that there were no print outs available for controls after March 6, 2024. The cartridge lot number documented on the i-Stat print out was 460R233190181. The remaining print outs were for electronic simulator runs on March 22, 2024 and May 15, 2024. 6. A review of patient results found that patients had been tested on May 15, 2024 and June 12, 2024, using cartridge lot 436R233490181. No control results were documented on these days or for the initial use of cartridge lot 436R233490181. 7. These findings were confirmed in an interview with the technical consultant on August 21, 2024 at approximately 11: 30 AM. The laboratory performs approximately 600 hematology tests annually. D5781
