Keep an eye out for this new QC LOG for the KIT tests (OSOM & ID NOW)

Place ID NOW QC labels on the back of this sheet.

Why is external quality control (QC) important?

All external QC samples have known values. If we run the QC

Example: The ID NOW Positive COVID-19 swab should give a result . If the analyzer detects a positive result when running positive qc, the QC will PASS. This indicates to us that all patient results that result as positive can be trusted to indicate a true positive result.
