As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a sample testing method applied to a sample analysis system, in particular according to the present invention, the sample analysis system including at least a sample analyzer, which may be a biochemical analyzer or an immunoassay analyzer, the method comprising:

s101, under the condition that sample introduction of the sample rack is detected, when the test waiting time of the sample analyzer is judged to exceed the preset time length, the sample analyzer is switched from a first state to a second state. The first state is a state in which sample detection can be started, and the second state is a state in which sample detection cannot be started.

The sample testing method provided by the embodiment of the invention is suitable for a scene that the sample analyzer detects the sample injection of the sample rack in a non-testing state.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the sample analysis system further includes a sample transportation track and a sample detection device, wherein the sample detection state is used to detect whether a sample rack is fed to the sample transportation track, and the sample transportation track is used to transport the sample rack carrying the sample to be detected to the target sample analyzer for sample analysis.

In one embodiment, the sample analysis system detects whether the sample rack is injected by the injection detection device, and when the sample analysis system detects that the sample rack is injected by the injection detection device, the sample analysis system obtains a test waiting time of the sample analyzer, wherein the test waiting time is a time period from a termination time of sample testing of a round of the sample analyzer to a current time when the sample rack is detected.

When the sample analyzer completes one sample test operation, the sample analyzer is switched from the test state to the idle state, waits for the next sample rack sample injection in the idle state, and executes the next sample test task; when having many analyzers on the assembly line, sample analysis system transports the sample frame through the sample and transports the sample analyzer front end that the track transported the sample to corresponding, can cause follow-up sample frame to be plugged up by preceding sample frame when the sample frame quantity that needs transported is many, temporarily can't transport the condition that corresponds sample analyzer front end, and at this moment, this sample analyzer is in under idle state always, can cause the consumption of sample analyzer mechanical parts loss and consumptive material.

In order to reduce the loss of mechanical parts and the consumption of consumables of the sample analyzer, a preset time length is preset in the sample analysis system, when the test waiting time of the sample analyzer reaches the preset time length, the sample analyzer is represented not to execute a sample test task for a long time, at the moment, the sample analysis system switches the sample analyzer from an idle state to a dormant state, and at the moment, the sample analyzer can enter the dormant state or execute an instrument maintenance flow; and when the test waiting time of the sample analyzer does not reach the preset time length, the sample analyzer is still in an idle state and waits for the next sample rack sampling.

Wherein the first state is an idle state, i.e. a state in which the sample analyzer can start sample detection; the second state is a dormant state, i.e., a state in which the sample analyzer cannot initiate sample testing.

For example, for the biochemical analyzer, in the second state, the biochemical analyzer may enter a sleep state, a wake state, an incubation state, and the like, which are specifically selected or added according to actual situations, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited specifically.

For example, for the immunoassay analyzer, in the second state, the immunoassay analyzer may enter an idle state, an incubation state, an automatic mixing state, an automatic condensed water draining state, an automatic effect detection state, and the like, which are specifically selected or added according to actual situations, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited specifically.

S102, under the condition that the sample analyzer is in the second state, when the sample rack is detected to reach the preset position of the sample analyzer, whether the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state is judged.

And when the sample analyzer is switched from the first state to the second state, the sample analyzer enters the second state, and under the condition of being in the second state, when the sample rack is detected to reach the preset position of the sample analyzer, whether the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state is judged.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a sample recognition component is disposed at a front end of the sample analyzer, where the sample recognition component includes a sensor and a sample scanning component, and is specifically selected according to an actual situation, and the embodiment of the present invention is not specifically limited. When the sample analysis system detects a sample rack using the sample identification component, the sample analysis system detects that the sample rack reaches a preset position; at the moment, on one hand, the sample analysis system obtains the sample information of the sample to be tested from the sample rack so as to carry out the process of testing the sample based on the sample information; and on the other hand, the current task flow of the sample analysis system is obtained, and whether the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state or not is judged according to the current task flow.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the current task flow executable by the sample analyzer in the second state includes two types, which are respectively: the specific process that the sample analysis system judges whether the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state according to the current task flow is as follows: the sample analysis system judges whether the sample analyzer executes the task flow currently; if the sample analyzer executes the task flow and the task flow cannot be immediately stopped, the condition of immediately exiting the second state is not met; if the sample analyzer executes the task flow, but the task flow can be stopped immediately, the condition of exiting the second state immediately is met; if the sample analyzer is not executing the task flow, then a condition for immediately exiting the second state is satisfied.

In one possible embodiment, for the biochemical analyzer, when the biochemical analyzer is in the idle state, the biochemical analyzer does not execute the task flow, and at this time, the biochemical analyzer satisfies the condition of immediately exiting the second state; when the biochemical analyzer is in a dormant state or an awakening state, the task flow executed by the biochemical analyzer is a task flow which can be immediately interrupted, and at the moment, the biochemical analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting from the second state; when the biochemical analyzer is in the incubation state, the biochemical analyzer executes the incubation task, the biochemical analyzer needs to control the temperature of the analyzer to reach the incubation temperature and enable the blood sample and the reagent to fully react, so the incubation state cannot be immediately stopped, and at the moment, the biochemical analyzer does not meet the condition of immediately exiting the second state.

In another possible embodiment, for the immunoassay analyzer, when the immunoassay analyzer is in the idle state, the immunoassay analyzer does not execute the task flow, and at this time, the immunoassay analyzer satisfies a condition for immediately exiting the second state; when the immunoassay analyzer is in the incubation state, the immunoassay analyzer does not satisfy the condition of immediately exiting the second state; when the immunoassay analyzer is in an automatic maintenance state such as automatic blending, automatic condensate water drainage, automatic effect detection and the like, the immunoassay analyzer executes task flows such as automatic blending, automatic condensate water drainage, automatic effect detection and the like, and the task flow of automatic blending, the task flow of automatic condensate water drainage and the task flow of automatic effect detection can be immediately stopped, at the moment, the immunoassay analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting from the second state.

And S103, if the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state, and carrying out sample detection on the sample to be detected on the sample rack.

In one possible embodiment, when the sample analysis system determines that the current task flow is a first task flow in the instrument maintenance flow, the sample analysis system characterizes that the sample analysis instrument meets a condition of immediately exiting from a second state, wherein the first task flow is a task flow of an immediate interruption type in the maintenance flow; at this point, the sample analyzer ends the current task flow and exits the second state.

Optionally, the first task process may include an automatic blending task process, an automatic condensed water draining task process, and an automatic effect detection task process, which are specifically selected according to an actual situation, and embodiments of the present invention are not specifically limited.

Further, if the sample analysis system judges that the sample analyzer executes the task flow at present and the task flow cannot be stopped immediately, the sample analysis system judges that the sample analyzer does not meet the condition of exiting the second state immediately, and at the moment, the sample analyzer completes the current task flow firstly; and when the sample analyzer completes the current task flow, the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state, the sample analyzer exits the second state, and the sample testing process of the sample to be tested is started.

For example, fig. 4 is a flowchart of the self-starting of the sample analyzer in the test suspension state:

1. the sample analysis system judges whether the sample rack is transported to a front end rail of the sample analyzer;

2. when the sample analysis system judges that the sample rack is transported to the front end track of the sample analyzer, the sample analyzer judges whether a sample adding task is obtained;

3. when the sample analyzer judges that the sample adding task is obtained, the sample analyzing system starts the sample analyzer;

4. when the sample analysis system successfully starts the sample analyzer, the sample analyzer starts to perform sample test;

5. when the sample analysis system fails to start the sample analyzer, stopping running the sample analyzer, and transporting the sample rack back to the recovery area;

6. when the sample analysis system is temporarily unsuccessful in starting the sample analyzer, step 3 is performed.

In practical applications, when the sample analysis system includes two biochemical/immunological analyzers M1 and M2 and one scheduling module, the specific process of the sample analyzer for performing sample detection is as follows:

1. the healthcare worker activates the sample analysis system, at which time the scheduling module, M1, and M2 are simultaneously activated;

2. the scheduling module detects a sample and transports the sample to M1, and at the moment, no sample is processed by M2, and the idle state is recovered;

3. when the consumable supplies in the M1 are insufficient, the consumable supplies are waited for replenishing, and the M2 enters a dormant state after an idle state for a certain time;

4. after the consumable in M1 is replenished, the process of sample testing is carried out in M1, and at the moment, the scheduling module transports another sample to M2;

5. m2 exits sleep mode and performs self-start to complete the process of sample testing in M2.

It can be understood that, under the condition that the sample holder is detected to be fed, when the sample analysis system is in the second state that the sample detection cannot be started and the sample analysis system detects that the sample holder reaches the preset position of the sample analyzer, the sample analysis system can automatically judge whether the condition of immediately exiting the second state is met, and exit the second state when the sample analyzer meets the condition of immediately exiting the second state, and automatically start the sample analyzer to execute the process of the sample test, so that the intelligence of the sample test is improved, and the complexity of the sample test process is reduced.

As shown in fig. 6, an embodiment of the present invention provides a sample analysis system, which is applied to a sample analyzer, particularly a biochemical analyzer or a chemiluminescence immune analyzer, particularly according to the present invention, wherein the sample analysis system 1000 may include:
