Whilst the science is complex, the applications are not. Diagnostic testing takes place every day behind the scenes of GP surgeries, laboratories and hospitals.
Around 70% of all medical decisions are based on laboratory results, and so, not surprisingly, we believe that earlier, more accurate and more accessible diagnostics are the key to improving global health and saving lives.

EQA measures a laboratory's accuracy using 'blind' samples that are analysed as if they were patient samples. Results are returned to the scheme organiser for statistical analysis. Laboratories receive a report comparing their individual performance against other participants in the programme. Randox provides the largest international EQA programme with 50,000 participants called the RIQAS.
EQA has a number of functions:
• Maintaining and improving the analytical quality of laboratory tests
• Improving interlaboratory agreement and raising standards
• Detecting equipment failures, identifying reagent problems, reviewing staff training
• Initiating and evaluating corrective actions
• Comparing different analytical methods
Participation in an EQA scheme will help produce reliable and accurate reporting of patient results. Quality results will reduce
time and labour costs, and most importantly provide accurate patient diagnosis and treatment.
