Background New moving average quality control (MA QC) optimization methods have been developed and are available for laboratories. Having these methods will require a strategy to integrate MA QC and routine internal QC. Methods MA QC was considered only when the performance of the internal QC was limited. A flowchart was applied to determine, per test, whether MA QC should be considered. Next, MA QC was examined using the MA Generator (www.huvaros.com), and optimized MA QC procedures and corresponding MA validation charts were obtained. When a relevant systematic error was detectable within an average daily run, the MA QC was added to the QC plan. For further implementation of MA QC for continuous QC, MA QC management software was configured based on earlier proposed requirements. Also, protocols for the MA QC alarm work-up were designed to allow the detection of temporary assay failure based on previously described experiences. Results Based on the flowchart, 10 chemistry, two immunochemistry and six hematological tests were considered for MA QC. After obtaining optimal MA QC settings and the corresponding MA validation charts, the MA QC of albumin, bicarbonate, calcium, chloride, creatinine, glucose, magnesium, potassium, sodium, total protein, hematocrit, hemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, MCV and platelets were added to the QC plans. Conclusions The presented method allows the design and implementation of QC plans integrating MA QC for continuous QC when internal QC has limited performance.
