8 Proficiency Testing
8.1 Information regarding proficiency tests
Observe the applicable regulations and directives of the
responsible regulatory agencies when performing
proficiency tests.
Blood glucose proficiency tests are run on samples
whose values are unknown to the operator performing
the test. These samples are provided by an outside
source, and the results should be forwarded to the appro-
priate source after completing the test. The supplied
samples are treated in the same manner as regular
patient samples.
Blood glucose proficiency testing provides another
means to verify that your technique, reagents, system,
and testing performance are as they should be. Some
regulatory agencies require that these proficiency sam-
ples be tested as part of an institution's quality assurance
program before certification of the institution is allowed.
When using a data management system for configura-
tion, it is possible to partially or fully disable the func-
tions described in this chapter. In this case, the
respective buttons in Main Menu 2 do not appear. See
also Appendix A.
