Abstract:
Objective To investigate the linearity on testing creatinine in various assay instntments,in order to evaluate creatinine testing ability of clinical laboratories. Methods Statistically standard linearity and nonlinearity were judged via polynomial regression analysis recommended by EP6-A guideline. The imprecision of analytical data were analyzed and the average deviation of best fitting curve from linearity were determined by Dr. Kroll's EP6-A extended methods. In accordance with the instruments used, the testing data were divided into four groups: Beckman LX (28 Labs), Beckman CX ( 14 Labs), Hitachi (62 Labs)and Olympus (72 Labs) groups. Results This research found that in samples analyzed by Beckman LX,Beckman CX, Hitachi and Olympus instruments, the imprecision ranged from 0. 30%-3.01%, 0.09%-3.46%, 0. 14%-4. 91% and 0. 17% -16. 44%, respectively. The imprecision in one laboratory in Olympus group exceeded the acceptable limit, while the imprecision in the remaining laboratories were precision for linear survey. The average deviations of best fitting curve from linearity ranged from 0%-2. 38%, 0%-2. 51%, 0% -5.46% and 0% -4. 66%, respectively. The linearity with statistical significance were 21.4% (6/28), 35.7% (5/14), 11.3% (7/62) and 18. 1% (13/72), respectively. The linearity with clinical significance were 78.6% (22/28), 64. 3% (9/14), 88. 7% (55/62) and 80. 6% (58/72), respectively.The percentages of laboratories whose creatinine testing met the linearity criteria were 100% (28/28),100% ( 14/14 ), 100% ( 62/62 ) and 98. 6% ( 71/72 ), respectively. Conclusion Majority of the laboratories involved in the linearity survey present good capability for creatinine testing.
