Abstract

During COVID-19 many serum analytes show significant concentration changes allow to make prediction on severity and development of illness. Namely results of ALT, LD, albumin, creatinine and eGFR, cardiac markers, procalcitonin, lipids.

New approach to harmonization in clinical laboratories based on IVDR 746 and derived from ISO 17511:2020 and ISO 21151:2020 was assessed for these analytes. Aim of communication deals with real statement in harmonization and its problems in these analytes.

WE found lot of harmonization problems in all introduced analytes.
