Delta Check Criteria
2015-07-13
Definition: This field applies to numeric tests/observations with a nature code of A or C (see OM1-18 - Nature of Service/Test/Observation). The field describes the information that controls delta check warnings and includes four components.
More than one delta check rule can apply. 13&16^10^%^100~16.1&20^2^a^100 implies that the delta check will trigger on a 10% change when the value of the observation is between 13 and 16. The check will trigger on an absolute change of 2 when the value is between 16.1 and 20. In both cases, the system will keep the last result for 100 days. In this example, beyond 100 days, the computer will not compute a delta check because it will not have a comparison value.
