I was looking over a recent study of a compact blood gas analyzer conducted over multiple sites, multiple cartridges, multiple days, etc. In other words, this was a study that was doing a very thorough job.
Then I reached a section where suddenly it all fell to nonsense: measurement uncertainty.
So they calculated measurement uncertainty, but then they compared the results against Ricos desirable imprecision performance specifications.
Huh?

In Biochemia Medica, a recent article detailed the Minimum requirements for the estimation of measurement uncertainty:Recommendations of the joint Working group for uncertainty of measurement of the CSMBLM and CCMB.
Can you guess how many?

Remember in 2017 when there were predictions that Theranos wouldn't last out the year?
It appears reports of Theranos' death were greatly exaggerated... or maybe not
