Average of Patient Deltas: Patient-Based Quality Control Utilizing the Mean Within-Patient Analyte Variation.

BACKGROUND: Because traditional QC is discontinuous, laboratories use additional strategies to detect systematic error. One strategy, the delta check, is best suited to detect large systematic error. The moving average (MA) monitors the mean patient analyte value but cannot equitably detect systemat...
