Method Comparability Between Different Platforms: Gel vs. Tube
Roger Bertholf
Description
Method comparability compares the primary test method with other comparative test methods that are in use within a laboratory. For transfusion service facilities, this comparison is performed with quality control testing when different testing platforms are being used. This program will look at the background of method comparison testing and an example protocol for a transfusion service.

  • Determine why we need to perform method comparability (the importance of method comparison testing).
  • Discuss at what frequency should we do method comparison testing.
  • Review an example of method comparability protocol in Transfusion Service.
  • Review what is involved in performing method comparability.
