| Abstract: | Providing laboratory external quality assessment (EQA) programs for countries in need requires special considerations not ordinarily part of EQA for laboratories in industrialized countries. Cultural, professional, service and economic factors must be understood and accommodated in order to carry out successful programs. Coordination of worldwide efforts for countries in need requires more resources and planning than have thus far been devoted to the enterprise. |
