As a result, it was ensured that the data records were correct and detailed by following the laboratory indicators. Panic value notification 57,36% in 2017, while the rate in the year 2018 has reached at 96,81%. Improvements were observed in 2018 compared to 2017 in the rejected sample rate, the sample rate taken again, the number of nonconformities in the internal quality control tests, and the timely result rates.
