April TRUD Release• Revised list of units of measurement
• PBCL and NLMC• New entries – 294
• Inclusion of sample type• Corrections to names eg BNP
• Deletions – 299• Duplications• Linked to corrections
© The Strategic Projects TeamHosted by the Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit
Supplementary File• Guidance at present/mandatory in future• Linking analytes (with analysed specimen
type) to a single unit of measurement• Addition of Data Combination Indicators
• 0 = test not used to trend • 1 = OK to assume combination• 2 = requires a factor• 3 = don’t even think about it• 4 = not yet agreed
Why? - PQAR
‘The continued development of the NLMC to ensure consistency of data and information across the NHS in England should remain a
priority. The professional bodies, the IVD manufacturers and others should work towards minimising the differences between analytical
processes, requesting and reporting.’ Recommendation 4.66 Pathology Quality Assurance Review
Why? - PQAR ‘Laboratory processes should be harmonised so
that patients can be confident about the consistency of their test results, especially as
they start to gain access to their personal health records that may contain reports from different
pathology services’

Ref Range Variation• Self reported reference intervals for TSH and fT4.
• Each bar represents a different laboratory
• Each colour represents a single analytical method
• Statistical analysis 750,000 TSH reports gives 0.5 - 5.5 mU/L but ?variation - age, method

Standardisation of Reports
The emphasis is on the reports More than one approach:• Standardisation of analytical techniques• Use of WHO and similar reference materials • Mathematical alignment of methods
– Mean values of different methods• Where no international reference materials
– To WHO reference based methods
