Medical laboratory accreditation in a resource-limited district health centre laboratory, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia	2019		.htm	text/html	3729	180	35	Background In developing countries, the expansion of laboratory diagnostic infrastructure has increased to the extent of meeting the needs of evidence-based treatment.1 Along with investing in accessibility, simultaneous improvements in the quality of laboratory services are needed to ensure the quality of health services.1,2 Laboratory service in resource-limited settings is very weak and quality assurance system practices are either very weak or do not exist at all.3 Laboratory testing errors can mislead clinicians and cause serious harm to patients, but the errors can be reduced by establishing a comprehensive laboratory quality management system.1,4 The implementation of a laboratory quality management system enables the healthcare system to provide reliable services and strengthens the overall quality of patient care. Quality indicators A quality indicator is an objective measure that potentially evaluates all performance improvements in laboratory services based on ISO 15189 standards (turn-around time, external laboratory assessment, customer satisfaction, laboratory service interruption, equipment downtime, specimen rejection and laboratory supplies stock level).	cache/ajlm-793.htm	txt/ajlm-793.txt
