Acusera 24•7 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)

Is it possible to compare multiple instruments on a single Levey-Jennings Chart?
With Acusera 24•7 users can combine multiple instruments, as well as analytes and QC lots on a single chart. This will enable comparative performance assessment and facilitate immediate visualisation of any ongoing or emerging trends. It may also be useful for troubleshooting out of control QC events.
Is it possible to compare different levels of control on a single Levey-Jennings Chart for identification of concentration related bias?
Yes data for multiple QC lots can be displayed on a single, convenient Levey-Jennings chart allowing any concentration related problems to be identified quickly.
How often is peer group data updated?
With Acusera 24•7, peer group data is uniquely updated live in real-time. The instant nature of the peer data will help reduce time and money spent troubleshooting, re-running QC samples and performing any instrument maintenance. With real-time peer group data you can compare to other laboratories around the globe using the same lot of QC material and identify if there are any issues and whether they are unique to your lab or a widespread issue.
Is there a limit to the number of users?
There is no limit to the number of concurrent users – you can have as many as you want. There are 5 different levels of user access – Admin, Group Co-Ordinator, Manager, User and Technical Support. It is worth noting that User access can be customised per user to ensure access to only the required functionality
How can the software help me to meet ISO 15189:2012 requirements?
Unique to Acusera 24.7 , our software will automatically calculate Measurement Uncertainty (UM) and provide your laboratory with a printable report that can be used to help meet ISO 15189:2012 accreditation requirements. In addition to this the software can help to prevent the release of patient results in the event of a QC failure for example when the Quality Control rules are violated.
Is it possible to use RiliBAK as my allowable limits?
QC data can indeed be rejected or alerted based on RiliBAK guidelines. Other options are also available, including, CLIA, Biological Variation, RIQAS TDPA and user defined performance limits.
Is Acusera 24.7 secure?
To authenticate users, a number of security measures are used, including; participant number, username and a password combination (for individual role-based accounts). Password complexity standards are enforced on user account setup. CAPTCHA is enforced after several failed login attempts to prevent or guard against automated attacks. HTTPS and X509 certificate authentication is in place meeting industry security standards.
I have never used interlaboratory software before, is there training provided with my purchase of 247?
There are a number of different options available in terms of training. The easiest, most convenient and accessible form of training is through the use of our walk through demo that has voice-over and text so everyone can follow. With our software comes a user guide, this is a walk through that laboratories can use to guide them through the usage of the software. Additionally, there is also the possibility of a live demo from the sales consultant in your area who will be able to run through the software with you.
Can I create unique login credentials for each user?
Yes, each user will have their own personal log-in. If a lower level user, e.g. user, technical support or manager forgets their password they can have it reset by the administrator. However, if a group co-ordinator or admin forgets their password they should contact Randox directly who will be able to reset their credentials and resend to the administrator’s email address.
I currently use non-Randox Quality Controls, does this affect the ability of the software?
Not at all, our software is so flexible that it can be used with any other manufacturers Quality Control material. However, you will only have access to the internal functions of the software and will not have access to peer group statistics. For this reason we recommend the software is used alongside our Acusera true third party Quality Control solutions.
Is Acusera 24.7 the only software option available?
Yes this is the only option available – Unlike other manufacturers there is no need for any additional software packages or options. All functionality is available in the one software package.
My computer is very old, do I need a new, modern and up-to-date operating system to run the software?
Not necessarily. As long as you have stable access to the internet you can access Acusera 24.7 as it is a cloud based software.
My patient data is confidential. Will the software need access to this data?
Acusera 24.7 will not require access to your patient data. This is important for a laboratory but less for the software. Acusera 24.7 will only need access to the results of your Quality Control to ensure that your instrument/s are performing to standard and therefore ensuring that your patient results will be reliable and accurate.
I have forgotten my username and password – what do I do now?
If an individual with user level or manager level access forgets their username and password, they should contact the laboratory administrator. If an administrator or group co-ordinator forgets their username or password they should contact Randox who will verify the administrator and send new login details for the account.
Is Acusera 24.7 Connect required to import QC data?
Acusera 24.7 Connect is only required if you wish to import QC data automatically. Data can also be entered manually using the data entry screen or in a semi-automated manner using the EDI function.
I need to renew my license, is this done automatically?
If your licence has expired and you would like to renew you should get in touch with your local Sales Consultant.
My internet connection isn’t great. Will this affect the running of the software? What happens if the signal drops when entering results?
If connection is lost from the laboratory’s side, all data will be transferred to the web and once reconnected, the previous session will also be remembered. Emergency power generators and fall over servers are in place to ensure 99.8% uptime is guaranteed.
Are there any additional software requirements?
You must have access to a Java applet. This software is available as standard on almost all modern computers, laptops and notebooks.
Acusera 24•7 Live Online V.2 – What’s New?

Acusera 24•7 Live Online – Version 2.0
Randox Quality Control are pleased to announce the launch of our brand new version 2.0 of our interlaboratory data management program – Acusera 24•7 Live Online Version 2.0.
The launch of this new version has seen major updates and improvements to the software and gives Acusera 24•7 Live Online the edge over many other competitors.
Updates to the software include real-time updates of peer data, more comprehensive charts and reports, bi-directional connectivity, speed improvements and a complete make over to the dashboard. Below, some of these updates are broken down and outlined as to why they are important for a laboratory.
Peer Group Statistics
The biggest update to Version 2.0 is definitely the ability to review peer data in real time. Previously, peer group statistics would have been updated every 24 hours, however, with this new update, data will be available to review instantly! The ability to generate peer data live in real-time will enhance the laboratory’s troubleshooting capabilities and allow labs to compare their data with others around the world. On top of this, there is no deadline for submission like some of our competitors, meaning labs can get a true reflection of performance at any time. Ultimately, labs will have the ability to identify if an issue is unique to them or if there is a widespread issue amongst their peers. Information such as this will allow laboratories to establish a root cause much quicker and therefore spend less time troubleshooting poor performance.
Reports & Charts
With version 2.0 reports and charts are more flexible than ever before. All reports can be generated for a user defined data range and will provide the lab with a whole wealth of information. Reports available on Acusera 24.7 Live Online can include; Statistical Analysis, Statistical Metrics, Audit Trail Reports and the new Exception Report. These reports, coupled with user-friendly and easy to interpret charts, such as Levey-Jennings, Histograms and Performance Summary Charts, enable rapid and stress-free performance monitoring. The ability to add multiple instruments, QC lots, analytes and events such as calibration and reagent lot changes to a single chart allows for comparative performance assessment and immediate identification of any trends.
Communication & Flexibility
The new software is now also capable of bi-directional communication with LIMS. This is a benefit to any laboratory, in the event of a QC failure or rule violation the 24.7 software send a message or alert back to the LIMS. Acusera 24.7 is designed primarily for use with our Acusera range of true third party controls, however, our software is flexible and can therefore be used with any QC material. Performance limits, QC multi-rules and peer groups can now be customised to suit each individual laboratory depending on user preferences for each different analyte, instrument or lot of control. Alternatively, users can also create custom configurations that are able to be shared across other instruments in their labs and within their groups.
Sigma Metrics & Uncertainty of Measurement (UM)
Version 2.0 of Acusera 24•7 Live Online comes with the automatic calculation of Sigma Metrics and Uncertainty of Measurement (UM). The benefit of automatic UM calculation is that it will help laboratories meet ISO 15189 requirements. Automatic Sigma Metrics calculation is included and is designed to help improve QC strategy design.
