Chemistry and Immunodiagnostics Data Reduction Program
   
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 in pdf Format*:
