Generating a Cumulative Test Results Report
In addition to accessing the results of an individual test, you may be able to generate a report that displays data from multiple tests simultaneously, allowing you to compare the results over time.
You can generate a cumulative report only under the following circumstances:
• An administrator enabled this feature for you.
• The patient has had the same test performed at least twice.
This cumulative report contains information about all of the analytes associated with each test. For example, if the patient has had multiple CBCs, this report would include the values for all of the analytes in that test (white blood cell counts, red blood cell counts, platelet counts, etc). To generate a report that is limited to one or more specific analytes (such as just white blood cell counts), see Generating Cumulative Analyte Reports.

Note: If the lab or client is configured to retain its patient test results for longer than five years, the cumulative report can contain data that is more than five years old. |
