Randox Laboratories is delighted to welcome you to a new set of educational webinars focusing on Applied statistics in the Medical Laboratory.
Our guest speaker for the series will be Stephen MacDonald, CPD assessor and a Principal Clinical Scientist at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
In the first of the three sessions, we will introduce commonly used statistical methods, terms and concepts. Topics will include statistical summaries such as mean, variance, standard deviation and coefficient of variation.
We will draw the distinction between imprecision and bias, and how both contribute to the quality of our results.
We will learn how statistics are used and what other calculations they feed into, including total error and measurement uncertainty. Using practical examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts discussed we can understand how to apply these statistical principles in your daily laboratory operations.
By the end of this session, participants will:
Gain proficiency in basic statistical measures such as standard deviation and coefficient of variation to quantify and manage analytical variability
Be able to distinguish between systematic and random errors
Acquire the knowledge and skills to calculate total error in laboratory measurements, taking into account both systematic and random error components.
Participants will be introduced to the basics of how statistics are used in understanding Measurement Uncertainty, to combine analytical variability and metrological traceability of laboratory results.
Whether you are a seasoned professional or new to the field, this session will provide valuable insights and practical knowledge that can be immediately applied in your workplace.
