Study Notes
Requisition Modes
- Create Mode: Default mode for requisition creation; allows multiple shopping cart creation and edits.
- Edit Mode: Enables modifications to an existing requisition prior to submission; editable carts are limited to the one PunchedOut to.
- Inspect Mode: Accessed when PunchedOut from a prior requisition without editing; does not allow any modification of cart contents.
Quality in Medical Laboratories
- Quality assurance in labs relies on various tools including:
- Procedure manuals
- Maintenance schedules
- Calibrations
- Training programs
- Quality control (QC) systems
- Focus on developing a statistical process control system to ensure reliability of patient test results.
Statistical Process Control
- Utilizes statistical techniques to verify the reliability of patient results.
- Relies on ongoing testing of quality control materials to calculate statistics.
- Aims for consistent and reliable QC results across laboratory networks and instruments.
Quality Control Materials
- Understanding independent quality control materials is crucial.
- Evaluating QC vendors is essential for enhanced laboratory performance.
- Best practices should be followed for improved efficiency and confidence in test results.
Learning Opportunities
- A workbook is available to learn about selecting quality control materials for laboratory testing.
- Key concepts include concentrations and open-vial stability.
- Continuing Education (CE) credits can be earned by passing a short exam.
