DPC RealTime
Service
The first of DPC's Internet-based service options was DPC RealTime
Service. This product continuously monitors instrument functionality
and can minimize interruptions in instrument operations due to service
or repairs by alerting DPC Technical Services of situations requiring
attention. Additionally, RealTime Service simplifies the service process
by allowing DPC's service personnel faster, easier and more complete
access to the operational history of each system without the currently
required operator assistance. |

Levey-Jennings
Report
The Levey-Jennings report is a graph displaying the laboratory's
historical QC results in chronological order. The graph shows how
these QC results compare to their target mean and standard deviation
for that assay. It also calculates a statistical summary of the
laboratory's data, including actual mean and standard deviation.
This report can help identify QC trends across instruments and kit
lots.

Peer
Group Report
The Peer Group Report shows how the local QC results for a particular
assay compare to those of other IMMULITE 2000 users. At a glance,
operators will know whether their QC results are within the range
seen by other laboratories throughout the world. Unlike peer group
reports from other vendors, DPC's peer group reports allow laboratories
to focus in on peer groups who are running the same lot numbers
as they are.

Adjustment
Report
The Adjustment Report shows the historical slopes and intercepts
for adjustments the laboratory has run for a given assay. This
feature allows operators to observe trends in adjustment data
over time in an intuitive graphical format. In addition, the following
reports will be available:
