Overview of Quality and Test Codes
The columns labeled
Test Code
and
Quality Code
are used extensively in your data editing
decisions. These codes indicate various technical attributes of the BP reading that you should take
into consideration when making a decision to "tag" or "untag" a BP reading. It is possible to have
both a
Test Code and a Quality Code
on the same BP reading.
Remember, Test and Quality Codes do not automatically indicate that a reading is invalid;
they only serve as guides to help you edit data.
