Select a QC Procedure

When selecting a QC procedure for implementation, select the procedure that best fits the following parameters:

• Optimizes error detection
• Minimizes false rejections
• Lowest cost (for example, the least number of control samples per run)
• Easiest to implement (for example, the simplest control rules)

Regardless of the procedure selected, it must meet or exceed the laboratory's established quality requirements.

Note: The optional Westgard Advisor™ online automatically recommends the best QC procedure.
