Requirements for reference (calibration) laboratories in laboratory medicine.
In addition to reference measurement procedures and reference materials, reference or calibration laboratories play an integral role in the implementation of measurement traceability in routine laboratories. They provide results of measurements using higher-order methods, e.g. isotope dilution mass spectrometry and may assign values to materials to be used for external quality assessment progra...

متن کاملErrors in clinical laboratories or errors in laboratory medicine?
Laboratory testing is a highly complex process and, although laboratory services are relatively safe, they are not as safe as they could or should be. Clinical laboratories have long focused their attention on quality control methods and quality assessment programs dealing with analytical aspects of testing. However, a growing body of evidence accumulated in recent decades demonstrates that qua...
متن کاملImplementation of reference systems in laboratory medicine.
In laboratory medicine, meaningful measurements are essential for the diagnosis, risk assessment, treatment, and follow-up of patients; therefore, methods applied in diagnostic measurements must be accurate, precise, specific, and comparable among laboratories (1 ). A given analytical measurement has only one true result, and the reliability of a measurement lies both in the result obtained and...
متن کاملEstablishing an enteric bacteria reference laboratory in Sierra Leone.
In 2012, Sierra Leone experienced its worst cholera outbreak in over 15 years affecting 12 of the country's 13 districts. With limited diagnostic capability, particularly in bacterial culture, the cholera outbreak was initially confirmed by microbiological testing of clinical specimens outside of Sierra Leone. During 2012 - 2013, in direct response to the lack of diagnostic microbiology facilit...
