Quality Control Configuration

Update quality control settings through the Quality Control Configuration screen. Both
external quality control (EQC) and manufacturer quality control settings can be configured
through this screen.
Add EQC information into the system prior to loading for recognition later during sample
loading. Use barcoded and/or unlabeled EQCs. EQCs loaded with barcodes will
automatically be assigned test orders according to configured settings. Unlabeled EQCs
can be quickly configured during the sample loading process. If using unlabeled EQCs,
do not use the Auto Sample ID Assignment or the Enable Non-Barcode Sample Loading
features. The settings for these must be unchecked in this scenario (see Specimen
Loading on page 224).
EQCs do not replace controls/calibrators and do not affect assay validity. Quality controls
are not required to be included in any assay run.
Change the manufacturer quality controls mean and standard deviation values listed on
the Levey-Jennings Report to override the calculated values listed as default. Entering
custom mean and standard deviation values changes the mean and standard deviation
settings on the applicable charts within the Levey-Jennings Reports.
Use the Quality Control Configuration screen to add and edit quality controls. Only an
administrator can configure the quality controls settings. The following table provides the
information displayed for each EQC on the Quality Control Configuration screen.
