Questions and Answers

Which phase of Quality Assurance focuses on monitoring excessive variation in specimen acceptability?

  • Pre-analytical phase (correct)
  • Analytical phase
  • Post-Analytical phase
  • All of the above
  • What is the purpose of Quality Control in the laboratory?

  • To measure the known, accepted value of a property
  • To guarantee the integrity of data

    Study Notes

    Quality Assurance

    • The Control Phase of Quality Assurance focuses on monitoring excessive variation in specimen acceptability.

    Purpose of Quality Control

    • The purpose of Quality Control in the laboratory is to ensure that the results of laboratory tests are accurate and reliable.

    True Value vs Measured Value

    • True Value refers to the actual value of a quantity being measured.
    • Measured Value is the value obtained through a measurement, which may or may not be equal to the true value due to experimental errors.

    Sensitivity in Laboratory Testing

    • Sensitivity refers to the proportion of true positives correctly identified by a laboratory test.

    Scope of Quality Assurance

    • Quality Assurance encompasses all the planned and systematic activities implemented to ensure that laboratory results are accurate, reliable, and consistent with the required standards.
