SPEAKER: John C. Fetzer

OVERVIEW:
Data quality and compliance to a required level of performance are measured by statistical tools. Usually in compliance there is a very heavy weighing towards only 3-sigma deviations. But statistics gives much more than that. There are other signs that being “out of control” is a building situation. These other statistical patterns can be used to trigger preventive actions without the dire consequence of a non-compliance.

Why should you Attend: Many problems that arise in an analysis result from causes that start small and grow over time. Others result from an unplanned change in a procedure or the performance of an instrument. These manifest themselves into changed patterns in certain measurable variables. The use of statistical methods to assess and monitor certain variables will be covered, highlighting the predictable patterns.

– Basic Statistics of Compliance and non-compliance
– Control Charts
– Nelson’s Rules
– Which Nelson’s Rule describes common occurrences in the laboratory
– Examples

Who Will Benefit:
– Research Associates
– Lab Chemists
