External Quality Assessment Scheme for Transfusion Transmissible Infections Among Blood Service Facilities in the Philippines, 2018
Bibliographic record
Abstract
External Quality Assessment Scheme (EQAS) is an important and vital component of a quality system to which a retrospective and periodic assessment of quality can be undertaken by an independent external agency.The Transfusion Transmissible Infections–National Reference Laboratory (TTI-NRL) annually provides an EQAS program for transfusion transmissible infections to all blood service facilities in the Philippines as a requirement for the renewal of their license to operate and raise the quality standards of testing for infectious diseases.A total of 188 participants registered in the 2018 test event and were given an EQAS panel comprised of a serology program (HVHT4120) and malaria program (MLRA415). Results from the participants were submitted through an online informatics system managed by OneWorld Accuracy Canada using the ISO 13528:2008 Robust Statistics method (Huber’s Method). Results were analyzed and evaluated with the reference result from the TTI-NRL.The HVHT4120 program generated 15,330 results and the MLRA415 generated 940 results. 97 results (0.63%) and 80 results (8.51%) were reported as aberrant from each program respectively and were either due to random or systematic errors.The data generated from this test event are used for the improvement of the quality processes of each participant and the subsequent renewal of their license to operate as required by local health regulations.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
