Estimating the precision of a measurement procedure (CLSI EP05-A3)

Learn how to estimate the precision of a measurement procedure for product performance characteristics, for FDA 510k submissions and product marketing.

In this tutorial you will use the CLSI EP05-A3 procedure to establish the precision.

  1. Estimating precision
    Estimate the precision of the measurement procedure at a single site.
  2. Estimating precision for a multi-site study
    Estimate the precision of the measurement procedure at multiple sites and samples.
  3. Fitting a precision profile
    Fit a precision profile function to describe the imprecision across the measuring interval.
