Abstract
A method of controlling a blood analyzer for measuring platelets is provided. The method comprises: determining a relationship between at least one first measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in at least one previous test by an electrical type detector of the blood analyzer and at least one second measurement value obtained by detecting the platelets in the at least one previous test by an optical type detector of the blood analyzer, and controlling the blood analyzer to prepare the first and/or second measurement sample for a current test according to the determined relationship.

A method of controlling a blood analyzer for measuring platelets, comprising:
- determining a relationship between at least one first measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in a blood sample of a patient in at least one previous test by an electrical type detector of the blood analyzer and at least one second measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in a blood sample of the patient in the at least one previous test by an optical type detector of the blood analyzer, and
- controlling the blood analyzer to prepare, from a blood sample of the patient, a first measurement sample for the electrical type detector and/or a second measurement sample for the optical type detector for a current test according to the determined relationship.
A controller of a blood analyzer for measuring platelets, configured to perform operations comprising:
- determining a relationship between at least one first measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in a blood sample of a patient in at least one previous test by an electrical type detector of the blood analyzer and at least one second measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in a blood sample of the patient in the at least one previous test by an optical type detector of the blood analyzer, and
- controlling the blood analyzer to prepare, from a blood sample of the patient, a first measurement sample for the electrical type detector and/or a second measurement sample for the optical type detector for a current test according to the determined relationship.
