a.Stop patient testing, troubleshoot and repeat the control, and document the action before reporting results
b.Report the patient results and repeat the control at the end of the shift

Giải thích
An out-of-range control indicates the system cannot be trusted, so patient testing stops until the cause is corrected and an acceptable control is obtained, with all steps documented. Reporting results from an unverified instrument risks patient harm. Averaging controls or judging results by clinical appearance defeats the purpose of objective quality control.
