Quality Control with Phadia 100
Control Charts
The instrument software program uses control charts to monitor internal
quality control. There are two ways to define the limit lines.
When a new quality control sample is used, no expected values obtained in the
laboratory are available. In this case the ranges given in the package insert may
be used.
When about 20 or 30 observations have been collected, the laboratory mean and
SD should be used for the new control limits.
For further information see chapter 6, Assay Run Quality Control or
chapter 10, Printouts.
Quality Club
A special function for Quality Club sample requests and result card printout is
available.
