| Overview
The monthly Interlaboratory Data Reduction
Program, offered by Beckman Coulter for Chemistry and Immunodiagnostics,
enhances the routine daily internal quality control performed by the laboratory.
The program is Beckman Coulter control material based and accepts data
from most clinical analyzers. The program's emphasis is on the grouping
of laboratories by analyte, method principle and analytical system to
provide meaningful monthly comparisons to each group. The data input is
easy to complete and the reports are comprehensive and easy to understand.
Data Entry
Data is submitted monthly in the participant's
choice of three formats. The input choice depends on the analytical system
in use and the needs of the laboratory. SYNCHRON CX® and LX® systems
can create a QC summary report or the laboratory may choose to use preprinted
Data Summary (OCR) or Levey Jennings (bubble) forms.
Monthly Data
Summary Report
Each month each subscriber receives a report
comparing the laboratory's data for the month and for the program Lot-to-Date
to the peer groups. The peer groups are increasingly specific; analyte,
method principle and analytical system. Significant differences are highlighted
to facilitate review and evaluation.
Group Summary Reports
A lot-to-date summary by analyte/method/instrument
is also available. This summary is particularly useful when evaluating
a new method or adding an analyte to the laboratory's test menu. Peer
data is valuable in the evaluation of start-up performance when no historical
data exists.
The Following Group Summary Reports are Available
