  7. Real-Time Statistics Dashboard Peer group comparatives listed in descending order from global users to the most specific instrument group

  8. Real-Time Statistics Dashboard • Standard Deviation Index (SDI) real-time comparison of the • internal mean to the target mean • Coefficient of Variation Index (CVI) - real-timecomparison of the internal imprecision (CV%) to the external one (CVu%)

  9. Real-Time Statistics Dashboard The comparative index are color-coded to indicate the degree of acceptable or unacceptable performance of the lab, when compared to your peer groups using the same lot of control SDI: Inaccuracy (Bias) CVI: Imprecision

  10. Real-Time Statistics Dashboard • Control manufacturer’s Package Insert information available for the customer in the same Statistic Dashboard.

  11. interQCis the most complete and intuitive quality control software package currently on the market interQCoffers: interQC Software • Real-time statistics with one-screen dashboard with internal and external statistical comparisons • Graphs that aid the laboratorian in data interpretation and decision making

  12. Wide range of graphs aids the laboratorian in the interpretation of:Internal QC data Real-time comparison to your peer group Graphs interQCgraphs: • Levey-Jennings Control Charts. • Standard Deviation Index (SDI) / Coefficient of Variation Index (CVI) • Multi-level • Evolution • Comparative Histogram

  13. Graphs: Levey - Jennings • Tracks trends or mean shifts of your internal controls • Compares your internal data points with the external mean in the same graph • Reflect all the records completed in the system Internal mean External mean Instrument note

  14. Graphs: Levey - Jennings This graph illustrates a reagent lot number change registered by the laboratorian

  15. Graphs: SDI - CVI Represents the cross point for inaccuracy comparisons (SDI) versus imprecision comparisons (CVI) in all control levels for each analyte (test) L 2 L 1

  16. Graphs: SDI - CVI Visualize if the deviation affects all control levels or just to only one in the same graph L 2 L 1

  17. Graphs: Multi-level Compares the internalcontrol mean for all levels with the externalcontrol mean most like your lab

  18. Graphs: Multi-level • Monitors: • Systematic Error • Manufacturer’s measurement range • Linearity of the system

  19. Monitors your lab’s monthly mean besides the most specific external mean Graphs: Evolution • Shows individual trends • Systematic Error Correction during a period of time

  20. Graphs: Evolution Monitors your lab’s Monthly CV besides the most specific external CV • Shows individual changes of imprecision • Random Error Correction

  21. Global number of users Most specific group (instrument) Your Lab Graphs: Comparative Histogram

  35. Customizable Westgard Rules Westgard Rules can be configured by the Director specific for each analyte (test)

  36. Customizable Westgard Rules Each rule has a different meaning that will alert the user about the origin of the evolving trend Random Systematic Random Systematic Systematic

  37. Customizable Quality Director Rules: • What is your laboratory’s Quality Standard? • Every Quality Management System is defined by Quality Objectives • Reachable • Quantified • Inside some limits: • Technical development • Clinical significance • LAW • Some Laws included in interQC establish Maximum Admissible errors that can be fixed as Quality Objective

  38. Customizable Quality Director Rules First, interQC calculates the laboratory’s random error and systematic error using both internal and external statistics

  39. Customizable Quality Director Rules Next, the Laboratory Quality Director may choose the Maximum Admissible Error to asses for a specific technique

  40. Customizable Director Rules: Quality Objectives Calculator interQC calculates the margin of error between the total error and the Maximum Admissible Error Total error Admissible error MARGIN OF ERROR

  41. Customizable Director Rules: Quality Objectives Calculator Before calculating a director rule to asses the quality level to be established for your lab, it is important to know the stability of the system for a technique

  42. Customizable Director Rules: Quality Objectives Calculator The more rejections observed for a technique, the more unstable the technique Therefore, the lab will need to apply a higher power of detection interQC will calculate the rule with the power of detection needed automaticallyfor your laboratory StabilityPower of detection needed High: Less than 2% rejections Between 25%-50% Medium: Between 2%-10% rejections Approximately 50% Low: Greater than 10% rejections Greater than 90%

  43. Customizable Director Rules: Quality Objectives Calculator Keeping in mind all of these parameters, interQC calculates the most specific rule to help your laboratory assess the quality requirements for a specific system and parameter
