Measurement Uncertainty and Metrological Confirmation in Quality-oriented Organizations
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of measurement uncertainty on estimates and decisions performed under a regime of quality control and improvement, is considered in this paper. Standard statistical quality tools are analyzed such as control charts and instrument calibration procedures. Their performance is characterized under the assumption of both normally and uniformly distributed measurement uncertainty. Exact and approximate expressions are derived that allow the design of suitable procedures including the contribution of measurement uncertainty.

Management of measurement uncertainty for effective statistical process control
In the context of quality assurance strategies, statistical process control techniques and conformance testing are necessary to perform a correct quality auditing of process outcomes. However, data collection is based on measurements and every measurement is intrinsically affected by uncertainty. Even if adopted instruments are in a condition of metrological confirmation, random and systematic ...

The JENSEN et al. [1] study represents a tremendous and successful effort on quality assurance and quality control as part of a large clinical study. The study or probably more likely the presentation of the study by JENSEN et al. [1] has a few limitations seen from a metrological point of view to which I want to draw attention. Traceability is the key stone of quality control of measurements a...
