ISO 15189 clause 5.3.1.4 (d) Recording calibration status and date of recalibration:
How do you maintain records of calibration of clinical chemistry analyzers i.e Cobas integra 400 plus analyzer is calibrated at every change of reagent lot and incase of IQC failure especially for electrolytes, Cobas e411 analyzer has an automatic calibration query that prompts calibration?

5.3.1.4 requirement is a "documented procedure for the calibration of equipment". "This procedure includes: (d) recording the calibration status and date of recalibration". To guide you, do the following:
My thought, never used cobas except interacting with it during my mentorships in other facilities. However, when you refer to it's user manual, do you find any beneficial information on the same? It's our main reference for particular equipment use.
Thanks Elde. That's well expounded!
According to ISO 5.3.1.4 "documented procedure for the calibration of equipment" requires you to document or record the calibration status and date of recalibration, Even though your calibration status can be electronic, it is important you have them registered in a hard copy or softcopy for traceability!
