Note:
1. D% = [ ( X - Xa ) / Xa ] x 100% ; X = Your Results , Xa = Assigned value
2. z′ score = ( X - Xa ) / ( σp2 + uXa2 )1/2
3. SDI = ( X - Mean ) / SD ; SD = standard deviation of peer group ; SDI is not calculated when SD equals 0
4. The assigned value ( Xa ) is the median of all the results reported of this QC sample
5. SD for proficiency assessment ( σp ) = 7% x Xa ; but while Xa < 2.9 U/g Hb, σp = 0.2 U/g Hb
6. uXa = uncertainty of the assigned value. uXa = 1.1 x SD / n1/2
7. Robust results ( Mean and SD ) were calculated by Algorithm A according to ISO 13528
8. The evaluation criteria for measurement result of each specimen : Acceptable : | z′ | <= 2; Caution : 2 < | z′ | < 3;
    Unsatisfactory : | z′ | >= 3
