# RAND®X QUALITY CONTROL QC Multi-rules are designed and used to minimise false rejections and maintain a high rate of error detection. There are six main rules used to determine if results from a run of patient samples should be accepted or rejected, based on the performance of control materials against the rule criteria. Different combinations can be applied depending on the number of controls in use, total allowable error and the instrument in use. The flow chart below is often used to determine if a run should be accepted or rejected. Q Rule 4 (4 results exceed 1SD) This rule is applied both within and across runs. The 41S rule is violated within run when four consecutive control results for the same control exceed the mean by either + 1S or -1S. The rule is violated across run when four consecutive control values for different levels of control exceed the mean by either +1S or -1S. The 41S rule detects systematic error rather than rejecting the run violation of this rule can indicate that instrument maintenance or calibration should be carried out. Rule 10x (10 results same side of the mean) This rule is violated if ten consecutive control results regardless of level fall on the same side of the mean. The rule detects systematic error and can be applied both within and across runs. Violation of this rule may not require rejection of the run but rather indicate that instrument maintenance or calibration is needed. The 10x rule can be modified to 7, 8, 9 or 12 consecutive results on the same side of the mean, each giving varying levels of sensitivity to systematic bias. Sources of random error • Power supply • Pipetting technique • Contamination • Bubbles in reagent/sample pipette system • Inappropriate storage • Poor operator technique Sources of systematic error • Deterioration of reagents, calibrator or controls • Instrument may need recalibrated • Poor calibration • Accumulation of debris on the instruments sample/ reagent pipettes • Change of reagent batch or reagent formulation • Instrument error or failure ACUSERA® ACUSERA® For optimum performance and advanced analytical capabilities use Randox third party controls in combination with Acusera 24^7 Live Online.
