EZ Runstm

Please note: This software is no longer available commercially

EZ Runs(tm) QC Charting Software - Next Generation Quality ControlEZ Runstm is advanced QC Charting software. It combines powerful features with tremendous ease-of-use. For both the novice and the expert, EZ Runstm is the new standard for getting QC done - and done right.

 

An Open System. EZ Runstm is not tied to any control or any instrument or any manufacturer. You can use it on any test, any system, and any control materials.

 

With the best "Westgard Rules". EZ Runstm has a library of over 100 single-rules and multirule combinations (popularly known as "Westgard Rules"), all with documented performance characteristics. There are no illogical or unknown control rules here. EZ Runstm gives you the most advanced QC design support so you can select the "Westgard Rules" that are best for your test.

And complete flexibility in setting control limits. EZ Runstm allows you to enter means and SDs from labeled values, or assign your own. Once you've collected enough control data, EZ Runstm can calculate the means and SDs for you, using data from fixed intervals, moving intervals, or cumulative-to-date. You have total control over the mean and SD that are used to calculate control limits.

With Advanced Features only Westgard can give you. EZ Runstm supports multirule, multilevel, and multistage QC design. You can enter data from multiple control materials running at multiple levels using multiple control rules, all in one file, all on one screen - the MultiCharttm . These advanced QC design features allow you to QC even the most difficult and problem-prone tests.

EZ Runstmtm gives you complete control over the creation of reports. You can designate what data to include, either by record numbers or by dates. You can specify which graphs to print, which worksheets to include, including the Action log of corrective steps taken after out-of-control events. Finally, you can add text comments to each report. For complete documentation of your QC activities, there is no better software.

Report Preferences: Choose to display the last week, month, the last 30 records. Display all the controls or just one. Display all of the cumulative, fixed, and interval means and SDs. It's all up to you.

Below follows just a sample of the power, flexibility, and control that EZ Runstm QC charting software delivers to you.

EZ Setup

Use the EZ Interview. Let the software ask you the questions - and when you provide the answers - let the software perform all the calculations.


Special Data Calculations

EZ Runstm allows you to choose many special data calculations and extra data columns in the worksheet.

Special data calculations like logarithmic transform, proportional transform, regression transform, and signal/cutoff ratio are available.


Advanced Feature: Six Sigma-metric Graphs with Integrated EZ Rulestm

When you use EZ Runstm with Integrated EZ Rulestm, you can calculate Sigma metrics and benchmark the quality of your laboratory methods against a universal quality standard. Integrated EZ Rulestm can also be used to Automatically Select QC Designs and Procedures to maximize error detection while minimizing false rejection (repeat runs). This powerful combination can optimize your QC to maximum efficiency - and it's only available from Westgard QC.

Sigma-metric and Critical-Error graph. Integrated EZ Rules(tm) calculates the error you need to detect. Sigma-metrics provides a universal standard of quality for benchmarking.


Complete control over the Setting of mean, SD and Control Limits

Use labeled values for mean and SD. Or assign your own from your laboratory records. Or have the mean and SD calculate the mean and SD from an interval (a fixed number of records, a fixed number of days, or a moving number of the most recent records, or the data from the most recent month, week or days). Or use a cumulative-to-date calculation of mean and SD to take advantage of all your data. EZ Runstm does all the calculations for you. All you have to do is click.


Advanced Feature: MultiCharttm Display of multiple Controls, multiple Levels and multiple Control Rules

EZ Runstm offers you a single view of your laboratory test data: MultiCharttm. This view allows you to view in the performance of multiple controls running at multiple levels, even using multiple control rules for interpretation -- all in a single screen. EZ Runstm automatically performs all necessary data calculations, including automatic flagging of out-of-control results, prompting for documentation of corrective action (recorded to the Action Log), and exclusion of out-of-control results from calculations. This combination of single-view, automatic calculation QC charting is only available from Westgard QC!


Traditional Levey-Jennings Charts

For those most comfortable with the traditional display of Levey-Jennings charts, they are available with just a click! You have complete control over the display of data, including what results are displayed, what calculations are performed, and how many charts you view.

Traditional Levey-Jennings charts are just one click away!

These are just a few of the features and screens available in EZ Runstm. This powerful QC charting program has all the features the QC expert wants, without sacrificing the ease of use that the QC novice demands. Both expert and novice can get their work done quickly and easily with EZ Runstm!
