-represents thetechniques & procedures that monitor per performance characteristics -a system oftechniques to ensure with a specified degree of confidence that the resultobtain from each series at analysis is true & correct -main purposeis to detect andrepair performance – remove sporadic spikes – to theprior chronic level, either by prompt action to restore the status quo or,preferably, by preventing the damage from occurring in the first place -deals with thecauses, sources of errors, mistakes & the procedures used to recognize & minimize errors; part of QA |

|
provideappropriate and standard methods, reagents, etc |
internal/intralab QC |

|
Purposes/Objectivesof QC |
to check for: -quality ofreagents -stability ofthe machine -technical(operator) errors |
|
-involves the analysis of control samples together with thepatient specimen -detects changes in performance between the present operation & the stable operation -important for the daily monitoring of accuracy & precision ofanalytical methods -detects both random & systematic errors in a daily basis -allows identification of analytic errors within a one – weekcycle |
internal/intralab QC |
|
-involvesproficiency testing programs that periodically provide samples of unknownconcentrations to participating clinical laboratories -important inmaintaining long–term accuracy of the analytical methods -also used todetermine state-of-the-art interlaboratory performance -the College ofAmerican Pathologists (CAP) proficiency program is the gold standard forclin lab external QC testing |
