4.7 Quality Control
The LumiraDx Instrument has a number of built-in QC functions. In addition to
these, LumiraDx Quality Controls can be used to meet compliance requirements
as required.
To perform QC testing with LumiraDx Quality Controls, you will need:
• LumiraDx Instrument
• LumiraDx Test Strips
• LumiraDx Quality Controls
Preparing for a QC test requires the same steps as preparing to perform a
patient test. The only difference in the test method is the use of Quality Controls
instead of patient samples.
Instruments being managed in a Connected mode may have the Quality
Control policy set to ‘Mandatory’ by in the Connect Manager settings. This
means that users and administrators are not able to perform a patient test when
a Quality Control test for that particular test is due. The timing and frequency of
mandatory Quality Control tests are configurable in Connect Manager.
