Abstract

The clinical laboratories are expected to produce comparable results out of measuring a given analyte in the same patient sample. In other words, if a single patient serum sample is aliquoted and distributed to various laboratories for measuring a substance such as glucose, the results of those laboratories should be comparable and very close to each other. This will not happen, unless the principles of metrology for measurement standardization is established in all of the laboratories, in advance.
In this case the principles of metrology implies that all of the above-mentioned clinical laboratories standardize the measurement of glucose in blood serum by using methods traceable to Reference Method Procedures (RMPs) and calibrating the analysis instruments by commutable Certified Reference Materials (CRMs).
In the session entitled “Measurement Standardization in Clinical Labs” of the IQC17, metrology and the practice of its principles in clinical labs will be deliberated. In addition, the current status of metrology in Iran and its implications in Iranian clinical laboratories will be covered.
