Assessment of patient based real-time quality control on comparative assays for common clinical analytes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is critical for laboratories to conduct multianalyzer comparisons as a part of daily routine work to strengthen the quality management of test systems. Here, we explored the application of patient-based real-time quality controls (PBRTQCs) on comparative assays to monitor the consistency among clinical laboratories.

Methods

The present study included 11 commonly tested analytes that were detected using three analyzers. PBRTQC procedures were set up with exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) algorithms and evaluated using the AI-MA artificial intelligence platform. Comparative assays were carried out on serum samples, and patient data were collected. Patients were divided into total patient (TP), inpatient (IP), and outpatient (OP) groups.
