Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of manually reverse mixing times on erythrocyte sedimenta-tion rate(ESR).Methods The ESR samples of 200 subjects were manually mixed for 3,6,9,12 and 15 times before detection.The ESR results of each group were collected,and the samples were manually mixed for 12 times as the reference standard.R(4.2.1)software was used for data analysis,Shapiro-Wilk was used for normal distribution test,Friedman test was used for multi-group comparison,and Spearman correlation analy-sis was used to analyze the correlation between different manually reverse mixing times and ESR.Results Be-fore specimen analysis,200 subjects were divided into 5 groups according to the manually reverse mixing for 3,6,9,12 and 15 times.The median ESR of each group was 13.0,11.5,11.0,8.0 and 11.0 mm/h in turn.Friedman test showed that there were significant differences in ESR results among the 5 groups(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in ESR results between manually reverse mixing for 3 and 6 times and man-ually reverse mixing for 12 times(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a negative correlation between the manually reverse mixing times and ESR(r=-1.000,P=0.017).Conclusion Speci-mens can be fully mixed by manually reverse mixing for 9 times.Too few times of manually reverse mixing can lead to high ESR.Clinical laboratories should pay attention to the pre-treatment of specimens to ensure the quality of the whole test process.
