Levey-Jennings Charts

IN THIS VIDEO:
Explore how the Levey Jennings Plot allows you to visualize quality control data to ensure test metrics are stable over time and fall within control limits. The control limits allow the test metric to be assessed based on whether the values fall within the range or outside of the range. Values falling outside of the control limits are considered "out of control" and when occurring on consecutive measurements can indicate the accuracy of the test metric has shifted. Westgard Rules, which are used to interpret the control data, are directly integrated into this feature

LEARN HOW TO: 
- Use an Internal Spreadsheet 
- Insert, Duplicate, and Format Levey-Jennings Plots
- Add New Data to an Existing Levey-Jennings Plots
