In this episode you will learn: - Daily QC for POCT devices requires running two levels of controls: a low/normal and a high/abnormal. - Levey-Jennings charts are used to visually track QC data over time, helping to identify shifts and trends that indicate potential problems. - The Westgard 1-3s rule requires immediate rejection of a QC run if a result falls outside three standard deviations from the mean. - When a QC result is out-of-range, you must stop patient testing immediately and perform corrective action before rerunning the control. - Meticulous documentation of all QC results, out-of-range flags, and corrective actions is mandatory for regulatory inspections.
