LABQUALITY
Do the current target limits of EQA schemes serve participants well enough?
interpretation of results
conclusions on analytical performance
LABQUALITY
Target limits
= target value ± total error
imprecision biasmethod group mean
orreference method value
LABQUALITY
- clinical needs- state of the art- statistical methods- within- and between-subject biological variation- suitable part of reference intervals
Different considerations can lead to different target limits. The priority may be maximal allowable error or educational quality goals.
Approaches for defining permissible total error
LABQUALITY
• imprecisionless than a half of the within-subject biological variation
• biasless than ¼ of the biological variation (within + between-
subject variation)or
less than 1/16 of the reference interval
• Biological variation
• Common reference intervals
Components of total error are based on
LABQUALITY
Target value ± (bias + 1.65 * imprecision)
Target value ± (¼ CVbt + 1.65 * ½ CVbw )
bt = total biological variationbw= within-subject biol.variation
The target limits are set so that when the methods are performing correctly, the result will be within the target limits with 95% probability
LABQUALITY
sometimes
biological variation approach would lead to too demanding analytical goals (e.g. Na total error 0.9%)
total error 2%
CV%-target from the analytical performance
LABQUALITY
sometimes
biological variation approach would lead to too wide analytical goals (enzymes e.g. CK 27%, ALT 36%)
CV%-target for enzymes from the analytical performance
total error 12%

Examples of Quality specifications in Labquality clinical chemistry surveys
Albumin 5 % Ca-Ion 3 % CRP 15 %ALP 12 % Cholesterol 5 % Free T4 12 %ALT 12 % Chol-HDL 10 % Sodium 2 %Bilirubin 12 % CK 12 % Triglyserides 15 %Calcium 3 % Creatinine 8 % TSH 12 %
LABQUALITY
Labquality´s target limits are educationaland not administrative.
Labquality´s target limits are quite tight.
