ISO 15189:2022 FOR MEDICAL LABS PUBLISHED

Posted on by 2 Comments

ISO 15189:2022 – Medical laboratories — Requirements for quality and competence

This document specifies requirements for quality and competence in medical laboratories.

This document is applicable to medical laboratories in developing their management systems and assessing their competence. It is also applicable for confirming or recognizing the competence of medical laboratories by laboratory users, regulatory authorities and accreditation bodies.

This document is also applicable to point-of-care testing (POCT).

NOTE : International, national, or regional regulations or requirements can also apply to specific topics covered in this document.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 212, Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test systems, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 140, In vitro diagnostic medical devices, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 15189:2012), which has been technically revised. It also replaces ISO 22870:2016.

The main changes are as follows:

  • Alignment with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 resulted in the management requirements now appearing at the end of the document;
  • Requirements for point-of-care testing (POCT), previously in ISO 22870, have been incorporated;
  • Increased emphasis on risk management.

Introduction

The objective of this document is to promote the welfare of patients and satisfaction of laboratory users through confidence in the quality and competence of medical laboratories.

This document contains requirements for the medical laboratory to plan and implement actions to address risks and opportunities for improvement. Benefits of this approach include: increasing the effectiveness of the management system, decreasing probability of invalid results, and reducing potential harm to patients, laboratory personnel, the public and the environment.

The requirements for risk management are aligned with the principles of ISO 22367.

The requirements for laboratory safety are aligned with the principles of ISO 15190.

The requirements for sample collection and transport are aligned with ISO 20658.1

This document contains the requirements for point-of-care testing (POCT) and supersedes ISO 22870, which will be withdrawn upon publication of this document.

The format of this document is based on ISO/IEC 17025:2017.

The medical laboratory is essential to patient care; activities are provided within an ethical and governance framework, that recognizes the obligations of healthcare providers to the patient. These activities are undertaken in a timely manner to meet the needs of all patients and the personnel responsible for the care of those patients. Activities include arrangements for examination requests, patient preparation, patient identification, collection of samples, transportation, processing of patient samples, selection of examinations that are fit for intended use, examination of samples, sample storage, as well as subsequent interpretation, result reporting and advice to laboratory users. This may also include the provision of results to the patient, arrangements for urgent testing and the notification of critical results.

While this document is intended for use throughout the currently recognized medical laboratory disciplines, it can effectively be applied to other healthcare services, such as diagnostic imaging, respiratory therapy, physiological sciences, blood banks and transfusion services.

The use of this document facilitates cooperation between medical laboratories and other healthcare services, assists in the exchange of information, and in the harmonization of methods and procedures.

The comparability of patient examination results between medical laboratories, regardless of city or country, is facilitated when medical laboratories conform to this document.

When a laboratory seeks accreditation, it should select an accreditation body which operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17011, and which takes into account the particular requirements of medical laboratories.

Comparisons between this document, ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 are in Annex B. The comparison of ISO 15189:2012 to ISO 15189:2022 (this document) is in Annex C.

Transition Timeline Announcement

ILAC Announcement – 8th

ISO 15189:2022 Medical Laboratories – Requirements for quality and competence has now been published.

Further a resolution was endorsed at the ILAC General Assembly to allow a 3-year implementation period from the date of publication of this revised standard (ie now December 2025) as shown below:

ILAC Resolution GA 26.08

As the revised version of ISO 15189 is scheduled for publication in 2022 or early 2023, the General Assembly endorses the recommendation of the AIC that a transition period of 3 years from the date of publication be adopted. 

Noting that the requirements for Point of Care Testing (POCT) contained in ISO 22870:2016 have been incorporated into the revised ISO 15189, ISO 22870:2016 in conjunction with ISO15189:2012 will still be recognised as a Level 4 standard for POCT for the duration of the transition period. 

At the end of the transition period, accreditation of a medical laboratory to ISO 15189:2012 and accreditation of POCT to ISO 22870:2016 in conjunction with ISO15189:2012 will not be recognised under the ILAC Arrangement.

The implementation of this transition period for ISO 15189:2022 by the signatories to the ILAC MRA for the accreditation of medical laboratories will be monitored by the ILAC AMC to ensure the deadline is achieved. The process used by the AMC to monitor this implementation of the revised standard will be similar to that used during the implementation of ISO/IEC 17025:2017

European Green Deal

European Green Deal: Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) Agreement

European Green Deal Announcement

Agreement reached on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)
Brussels, 13 December 2022

The Commission welcomes the political agreement reached this morning between the European Parliament and the Council on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The CBAM is the EU’s landmark tool to put a fair price on the carbon emitted during the production of carbon intensive goods that are entering the EU, and to encourage cleaner industrial production in non-EU countries.

Today’s agreement will be complemented by the revision of the Emissions Trading System (ETS), with negotiations taking place later this week, and that will align the phase-out of the allocation of free allowances with the introduction of CBAM to support the decarbonisation of EU industry.

Climate change is a global problem that needs global solutions. As the EU raises its own climate ambition, and as long as less stringent climate policies prevail in many non-EU countries, there is a risk of so-called ‘carbon leakage’. Carbon leakage occurs when companies based in the EU move carbon-intensive production abroad to countries where less stringent climate policies are in place than in the EU, or when EU products get replaced by more carbon-intensive imports.

By making sure that a price is paid for the embedded carbon emissions generated in the production of certain goods imported into the EU, the CBAM will make sure the carbon price of imports is equivalent to the carbon price of domestic production, thereby ensuring that the EU’s climate objectives are not undermined. The CBAM is designed in such a way that it is compatible with WTO rules.

President von der Leyen said: “I welcome the political agreement reached this morning on the Commission’s proposal for a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism. This is a central part of our European Green Deal, preventing the risk of carbon leakage. It is a huge step forward, as we raise our climate ambitions.”

Key elements :

The CBAM will initially apply to imports of certain goods and selected precursors whose production is carbon intensive and at most significant risk of carbon leakage: cement, iron and steel, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen. With this enlarged scope, CBAM will eventually – when fully phased in – capture more than 50% the emissions of the ETS covered sectors. Under this political agreement, the CBAM will enter into force in its transitional phase as of 1 October 2023.

The gradual phasing in of CBAM over time will allow for a careful, predictable and proportionate transition for EU and non-EU businesses, as well as for public authorities. During this period, importers of goods in the scope of the new rules will only have to report greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) embedded in their imports (direct emissions), without making any financial payments or adjustments. The agreement foresees that indirect emissions will be covered in the scope after the transitional period, on the basis of a methodology to be defined in the meantime.

Once the permanent system enters into force, according to a schedule to be defined in the revised EU ETS rules currently under negotiation, importers will need to declare each year the quantity of goods imported into the EU in the preceding year and their embedded GHG. They will then surrender the corresponding number of CBAM certificates. The price of the certificates will be calculated depending on the weekly average auction price of EU ETS allowances expressed in €/tonne of CO2 emitted.

A review of the CBAM’s functioning during its transitional phase will be concluded before the entry into force of the definitive system. At the same time, the product scope will be reviewed to assess the feasibility of including other goods produced in sectors covered by the EU ETS in the scope of the CBAM mechanism, such as certain downstream products and those identified as suitable candidates during negotiations. The report will include a timetable setting out their inclusion by 2030.

Next steps

Given the close links between the new CBAM and the review of the EU ETS, currently under negotiation in ‘trilogue’ between the co-legislators, the final technical details of the mechanism’s functioning will need to be clarified. Once the text has been finalised, the European Parliament and the Council will have to formally adopt the new Regulation before it can enter into force.
