Abstract

Objective To investigate the influence of geography on quality control (QC) testing in the point of care testing (PoCT) in general practice trial. Design and methods Within-practice imprecision for QC testing for HbA1c, urine albumin:creatinine ratio, lipids and international normalised ratio was calculated for each geographic region. Results There was no significant difference between the region of testing and within-practice imprecision, except for triglyceride and HDL cholesterol. Conclusions PoCT was conducted to an equivalent analytical standard across geographic regions.
