A biological material or an entity 1. biological hazard
contaminated with biological material
that is potentially capable of
transmitting disease.
An established protocol developed 2. Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP)
by each facility for the identification,
handling, storage, and disposal of all
hazardous chemicals. The
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration established the plan in
January 1990 as a mandatory
requirement for all facilities that deal
with chemical hazards.
A patient test result representing a 3. critical value
life-threatening condition that requires
immediate attention and intervention.
A process to remove a potential 4. decontamination
chemical or biological hazard from an
area or entity (e.g., countertop,
instrument, materials) and render the
area or entity "safe." One may use
various processes in decontamination,
such as autoclaving, incineration,
chemical neutralization, and
disinfecting agents
,A written record. In the laboratory, 5. documentation
documentation includes written
policies and procedures, quality
control, and maintenance records.
Documentation may encompass the
recording of any action performed or
observed, including verbal
correspondence, observations, and
corrective actions taken.
The use of materials (e.g., specimens, 6. external quality assessment
digital images) from an external
unbiased source to monitor and
determine whether quality goals (i.e.,
test results) are being achieved.
Results are compared to results from
other facilities performing the same
function. Proficiency surveys are one
form of external quality assessment.
A procedure outlining the equipment, 7.infectious waste disposal policy
materials, and steps used in the
collection, storage, removal, and
decontamination of infectious
materials and substances.
Established by Congress in 1970, 8.Occupational Safety and Health Administration
OSHA is the division of the U.S. (OSHA)
Department of Labor that is
responsible for defining potential
safety and health hazards in the
workplace, establishing guidelines to
safeguard all workers from these
hazards, and monitoring compliance
with these guidelines. The intent is to
alert, educate, and protect all
employees in every environment from
potential safety and health hazards.
, The performance of specific tasks in a 9. preventive maintenance
timely fashion to eliminate equipment
failure. These tasks vary with the
instrument and include cleaning
procedures, inspection of
components, and component
replacement when necessary.
An established protocol of policies 10. quality assessment (QA)
and procedures for all laboratory
actions performed to ensure the
quality of services (i.e., test results)
rendered.
Materials used to assess and monitor 11. quality control materials
the accuracy and precision (i.e.,
analytic error) of a method.
A written document provided by the 12. safety data sheet (SDS)
manufacturer or distributor of a
chemical substance listing information
about the characteristics of that
chemical. An SDS includes the identity
and hazardous ingredients of the
chemical, its physical and chemical
properties (including reactivity), any
physical or health hazards, and
precautions for safe handling, storage,
and disposal of the chemical.
