Example of a Levey Jennings Control Chart Created by QI Macros Add-in

QI Macros Add-in for Excel Offers Several Ways to Create a Levey Jennings Chart

1. Using the Levey Jennings Fill in the Blanks Control Chart Template
2. Using one of the two Levey Jennings chart macros

To create a Levey Jennings chart using one of the macros:

• Select your Levey Jennings chart data in an Excel worksheet
• Next click on the QI Macros menu, Control Charts and then on one of the two Levey Jennings chart options.
  
• Levey Jennings Stdev, uses standard deviation to draw the 1 and 2 sigma lines and the upper and lower control limits. You can also use this chart to create a Precision Control Chart.
• Levey Jennings 10 % draws 1, 2 sigma lines and upper and lower control limits using 10 %, 20% and 30% of the average. This percentage can be adjusted if another value is desired.

According to SOFT / AAFS FORENSIC TOXICOLOGY LABORATORY GUIDELINES 9.1.12 standard deviation may represent an unacceptably large percentage deviation from the mean. Therefore, a realistic percentage deviation should be used, such as ±20% or ±30%. This option is available in the Levey Jennings 10% Macro and Levey Jennings Fill in the Blanks template.
