Verification and Validation for Medical Laboratories

Verification and Validation Image

Description

Confused about verification and validation? You are not alone! Although the two words “verification” and “validation” sound alike, they are different. But if you are confused about the difference, take heart, you are not alone! When and how do we verify and when and how do we validate? There are good reasons for the confusion. It’s used differently in different industries, and even within diagnostic testing disciplines. This session will tease out the history behind the two terms, their use in other industries, their mistaken use in the past (even by Accreditation Canada), and the current thinking on what is required to meet ISO 15189.
