Abstract

Patient-based real-time quality control (PBRTQC) techniques utilise routinely generated patient results to monitor assay performance. These techniques have been described in the clinical laboratory for more than 50 years. PBRTQC has a number of purported advantages over traditional quality control (QC) including commutability, cost and the opportunity for real-time monitoring. Despite these benefits, the widespread uptake of PBRTQC methods in many laboratories has been slow. In this session, the basics of a PBRTQC program in clinical chemistry will be discussed along with recent developments in the field.
