Aimimg a more precise tracking, Ordinance 3388/2013 (QualiCito) determined standards and proposes the analysis of indicators for monitoring the quality of exams. The objective of this study was to analyze the post-analytical quality indicators of cytopathological exams performed in a clinical laboratory, in accordance with the Quality Management Manual for Cytopathology Laboratory. This is a quantitative study on the diagnostic quality through Pap smear. It has been analyzed 1,340 cervical-vaginal smears using the conventional Pap smear method. Of the 1,339 Pap smears considered satisfactory for evaluation, the quality standards indicators proposed by Brazilian Health Department, have been determined. The PI result was 3.7%, the relation of ASC/satisfactory exams was 2.5%. The relation of ASC/positive exams was 65.6%, the ASC/SIL ratio was 3.0, and the relation of HSIL/satisfactory exam was 0.4%. The relation of ASC/positive exams demonstrates values above the established. This suggests errors related to the analytical phase, more precisely errors related to diagnostic interpretation. This data demonstrates the needing of a continuous professional education.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Neoplasias do colo do úteroExame citopatológicoIndicadores de qualidadeFase pós-analíticaControle de qualidadeCâncer do colo do úterobachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE
