Randox RIQAS General Clinical Chemistry Monthly EQA Samples

The Randox RIQAS General Clinical Chemistry Monthly EQA Programme is an external quality assessment and proficiency testing system designed to independently monitor laboratory performance across routine clinical chemistry parameters. The monthly programme, catalogue RQ9128, uses lyophilised human-based serum samples and provides 12 × 5 mL samples over a 12-month cycle. It can assess up to 56 clinical chemistry parameters plus pilot parameters, covering routine chemistry, lipids, hormones and trace metals. Participating laboratories analyse each EQA sample using their normal patient-testing procedures, submit results through RIQAS, and receive external performance reports for comparison with relevant peer groups. Randox states that RIQAS clinical chemistry provides monthly reporting and is accredited to ISO/IEC 17043:2023.
