Abstract
Uncertainty of measurement is a quantitative indication of the analytical variability of a result. The uncertainty may need to be taken into account when interpreting data. Systematic assessment of the factors influencing the result and of the uncertainty forms a key part of method validation. This article examines the uncertainty of measurement of urine cultures and how it affects the final patient result.
