Online initiative focused on report interpretation to enhance routine practices.

Recently, participants in Controllab’s External Quality Assessment (Proficiency Testing) had the opportunity to expand their knowledge by exploring Proficiency Testing (PT) reports in a more strategic way during a new edition of the Online Forum.

The Online Forum is an exclusive event for Controllab service participants, offering not only a space for technical and strategic deepening on the topic but also discussions and experience sharing among participants and company specialists.

Importance of Proficiency Testing

Proficiency Testing (PT) is an essential tool to ensure accuracy and efficiency in analytical processes. It is also a requirement of the Brazilian regulatory norm RDC 786/2023, which establishes technical-sanitary standards for clinical laboratories, pathology labs, and other services related to clinical analysis testing (CAT).

Participating in Proficiency Testting (PT) ensures greater patient safety by preventing diagnostic and treatment errors. Additionally, it strengthens the laboratory’s reputation in the market and ensures compliance with regulatory and accreditation standards.

Applicability of the initiative to laboratory routine

With the theme “Deepening report analysis to enhance routine”, the forum, led by Controllab specialists, provided a practical approach to using report data interpretation to improve laboratory processes. Moreover, the event offered valuable insights on evaluation criteria, error limits, and the importance of critical result analysis.

According to participant feedback, the event was instrumental in clarifying questions and demonstrating the application of Proficiency Testing, empowering participants to use this tool more effectively.

These discussions generated valuable insights to enhance laboratory process efficiency and ensure analysis reliability.
