QuidelOrtho Announces Featured ADLM Session on Six Sigma Insights for Lab Performance

QuidelOrtho and a panel of experts will discuss how actionable Six Sigma insights can improve lab performance at the Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) meeting. The session, titled "Real Labs, Real Decisions with Actionable Six Sigma Metrics," will feature real-world data and case studies to drive quality outcomes. QuidelOrtho's Six Sigma tools and metrics will be highlighted as a means to improve lab performance.

QuidelOrtho Corporation (Nasdaq: QDEL) will present a featured session at the upcoming Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) meeting, focusing on the application of Six Sigma metrics to enhance laboratory performance. The session, titled "Real Labs, Real Decisions with Actionable Six Sigma Metrics," is scheduled to take place on July 29, 2025, at the McCormick Convention Center in Chicago [3].

The session will explore how QuidelOrtho's Six Sigma tools and real-world laboratory data can be utilized to drive quality outcomes in clinical settings. The panel discussion will feature Dr. Jared Jaeger as the moderator, along with distinguished professionals from the University of Florida PathLab, St. Peter's University Hospital, and UHS Hospitals. The session aims to provide actionable insights and practical examples of how Six Sigma metrics can be implemented to improve lab performance [1, 2].

Six Sigma is a data-driven approach that focuses on reducing defects and improving the quality of products and services. In the context of laboratory medicine, Six Sigma tools can help identify and eliminate inefficiencies, reduce errors, and enhance the overall quality of diagnostic tests. By leveraging real-world data, QuidelOrtho and the panel of experts aim to demonstrate the tangible benefits of Six Sigma in clinical settings.

The session will also feature a podcast discussion by QuidelOrtho data scientist Johanna Miller, who will discuss how Six Sigma metrics are being adapted for the clinical laboratory. This podcast, titled "Sigma Metrics and the Value of Real World Evidence," will provide additional insights into the practical application of Six Sigma in laboratory medicine [1].
