summary_short: The Resulting Decision (Single Triplicate Re-run) Flow Chart v1.2 defines how to assign final Negative, Positive, or Inconclusive results based on an initial test outcome followed by a single triplicate re-run when needed. It standardizes interpretation thresholds (e.g., 2+ positives or specific mixed patterns) so staff can make consistent resulting calls across runs.
