Reference Intervals
Where do you get yourreference intervals from?
From the kit insert! I use the intervals given
by the manufacturer!
Hmm - sometimes I usereference intervals from
textbooks.
Wait! For TSH, I found a very good paper and
now I use the intervalsfrom Wiseguy et. al.!
Did you evaluate them? Did you check the
transferability?
Aaahem – no...
Legal requirements?

A norm is not a law!
DIN EN ISO 15189 + 22870
According to the European Directive IVD medical devices, manufacturers are obliged to supply their clients with appropriate RLs for the use of their assay platforms and reagents.
Following the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 15189 standard for clinical laboratory accreditation each laboratory should periodically re-evaluate its own RLs.

IFCC – Direct Concept for Reference Intervals
„Problems“ with Direct Methods
Direct Methods Indirect Methods
Subpopulation usually “healthy” closer to patients´situation
Ethical problems must be considered not relevant(Data privacy)
Stratifications (Age, gender) difficult easy
Expenses high, dependent on number of samples
negligible
Complexity of statistics low high
Confidence limits usually broader usually smaller
Transferability problems relevant not relevant
Adopted from Haeckel et al, 2017, Manuscript
Concept – Indirect Methods
Selection of the results from a mixed population (containing diseased and non-
diseased subjects!)
Identification of a probably „healthy“ subpopulation.

Conclusions
• There are a number of indirect methods for the estimation of reference intervals.
• DGKL developed an algorithm for public use: RLE
• Advantages Direct vs. Indirect Methods
• IFCC C-RIDL states that indirect approaches for RL estimation could offer additional information to direct methods (especially at the edges of age)
