Laboratory analysis
Georg Alfthan
Selection of blood measurements
• Core measurements: • CVD risk factors
• Additional measurements: • CVD, Diabetes, Dietary biomarkers
• Infectious disease markers• Environmental exposure biomarkers
Critical pre-analytical issues of blood collection
• Fasting - 8-14 hours, glucose, triglycerides • Position of subject
• sitting• 10 min rest• lying 8% increase in blood volume
• Tourniquet - short duration• Season - spring vs. winter: cholesterol• Physical exercise
• heavy training dehydration
Documentation of blood collection
• ID of phlebotomist• Date and time of phlebotomy• Time from last meal• Number of tubes collected• Posture and reason if supine• Arm and reason if right
The procedure for specimen
collection, processing and storage

Storage of specimen
• Short term storage = - 20°C- Core measurements
• Long term storage = - 70°C- Additional measurements
Responsibility of National HES Laboratory ?
Selection of National HES Laboratory
• All core measurements should be performed in the same lab: National HES Lab (NHESL)
• Selection criteria: performance in external quality assessment program (regular participation)
• Additional value: The lab is accredited by a national organization
Recommendation for analytical methods
• All analytical methods should be documented and validated
• Documentation should be available at National HES Laboratory (HESL) and EHES Reference Laboratory (RL)
Standardization of analytical data
• Pilot calibration
• • NHESL EHESRL

Long term verification of bias
Bias of NHESL
Bias of EHESRL
CDC
National EQA program
Recommended goals for bias of methods
Bias (%)
Precision (CV%)• Core analytes Goal Acceptable
• Serum tot chol 3 5 2• Serum HDL chol 8 10 3• Plasma glucose 6 ? 3
Corrective measures recommended for National HES
Labs if bias exceeds criteria
• Check calibrators• Change reagents (kits)• Malfunctioning instruments• Wrong type of sample• Reagent not compatible with instrument
• Change method or technique !
Long term quality control
• Documentation of all changes done to methods and procedures
• Regular reporting to the central EHES RL
