Abstract:
Internal Quality Consolidation (PMI) is a preventive and monitoring activity carried out by each laboratory continuously so that errors or deviations do not occur so that correct inspection results are obtained, one of which is carrying out quality control (QC) using the Westgard Rule and Six Sigma . The Westgard rule is used to see whether there are analytical errors that occur with the 12 S , 13 S , 22 S , R4 S , 41 S , 10 X series of rules . Six sigma is used to assess the quality of a laboratory's performance by looking at the minimum sigma value level with a value of 3σ and a maximum of ≥

Abstract:
The study of Cristelli et al. attempted to find fault with the rules suggested by Westgard Advisor software, claiming that implementing those rules did not improve the method performance. A fundamental misunderstanding of the utility and purpose of the analytical Sigma-metric and QC rules needs to be clarified.

Abstract:
Abstract Numerous papers have been written to show which combinations of Shewhart-type quality-control charts are optimal for detecting systematic shifts in the mean response of a process, increases in the random error of a process, and linear drift effects in the mean response across the assay batch. One paper by Westgard et al. (Clin Chem 1977;23:1857-67) especially seems to have attracted the attention of users. Here we derive detailed results that enable the characteristics of the various Shewhart-type control schemes, including the multirule scheme (Clin Chem 1981;27:493-501), to be calcu

Abstract:
Introduction: The complete blood count (CBC) results are very important in clinical diagnosis decisions for patients. Imprecision and inaccuracy may lead to errors in patient diagnosis and treatment. To ensure a valid result, it is critical to evaluate the laboratory quality control (QC). However, QC evaluation in very remote areas remains scarce. This study aims to analyze the presentation of blood count quality control in a remote laboratory. Methods: The study collected 90 samples of quality control measurements in August 2023. The research data were analyzed using Westgard guidelines, Six

Internal quality assurance is a prevention and control activity that must be carried out by the laboratory continuously and covers all aspects of laboratory examination parameters. Hematology examination in the laboratory is carried out using a Hematology analyzer, but this tool has limitations, one of which is that it can make leukocyte count reading errors. In order for the results of the tool to be reliable, it is necessary to carry out quality control on the hematology analyzer. The use of Westgard multirule is commonly used in laboratories, but the application of six sigma is still very r

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND In clinical chemistry, quality control (QC) often relies on measurements of control samples, but limitations, such as a lack of commutability, compromise the ability of such measurements to detect out-of-control situations. Medians of patient results have also been used for QC purposes, but it may be difficult to distinguish changes observed in the patient population from analytical errors. This study aims to combine traditional control measurements and patient medians for facilitating detection of biases. METHODS The software package “rSimLab” was developed to simulate mea

Abstract I describe a program for definitive comparison of different quality-control statistical procedures. A microcomputer simulates quality-control results generated by repetitive analytical runs. It applies various statistical rules to each result, tabulating rule breaks to evaluate rules as routinely applied by the analyst. The process repeats with increasing amounts of random and systematic error. Rate of false rejection and true error detection for currently popular statistical procedures were comparatively evaluated together with a new multirule procedure described here. The nature of
