Two approaches for measurement uncertainty estimation: which role for bias? Complete blood count experience

Abstract

Measurement uncertainty is described as a magnitude indicates the distribution of the measurement results. AACB Guideline suggests that bias should not be included in the uncertainty calculation contrary to Nordtest Guideline. The aim of the study is to calculate the uncertainty values of certain complete blood count (CBC) parameters and evaluate the contribution of bias.
