註釋A practical introduction to the management and planning of quality control. With the aid of cartoons and more than 60 illustrations, Dr. Westgard dispels the confusion over how to select quality control procedures for laboratory methods. Using a detailed step-by-step planning process, the author shows you how to define the quality needed for a laboratory test, how you can select control rules for tests, and how you can set specifications for allowable bias and CV. CLIA requirements, JCAHO guidelines, CLSI methodologies and QC practice guidelines are discussed, and more than 20 quality-planning examples are graphically demonstrated covering applications for automated chemistry, blood gas, immunoassay, and coagulation tests. Appendices include tables of CLIA quality requirements, European goals for total biologic error, as well as a complete glossary, reference list, online reference list, and a set of self-assessment questions and detailed answers. Basic Planning for Quality is a much-needed primer on the management of quality control in the laboratory. For lab managers and directors, quality specialists, and clinical laboratory scientists who are looking for a saner way to manage quality in their labs, this manual will provide the missing ingredient - an objective way to manage your testing processes to achieve the quality needed for patient care while accounting for the actual performance of the methods in your laboratory. * Establish a practical process for managing quality in your laboratory! * Plan your quality logically, efficiently, and quickly! * Move beyond compliance with JCAHO, CLIA, NCCLS, and other rules! * Optimize your QC to minimize waste and maximize performance! * Select the best control rules for your tests! Basic Planning for Quality makes use of over 65 illustrations, graphs and tables, explains more than two dozen applications in detail, covers CLIA, JCAHO, NCCLS and other requirements, includes appendices on C
