Critical Checks for Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare: Validating Your Data Integrity and Process Performance
When regulators in pharmaceutical & healthcare ask you to validate analytical techniques, measurement systems ('Data Integrity') and process performance ('SPC'), Minitab recommends these critical checks.
Using My Fitness Tracker's Data To Get A Superhero-Inspired Physique
Analyzing two year's of fitness tracker data using Minitab Statistical Software to answer: does adding resistance training improve calories burnt compared to pure cardio?
Using Intervals to Get at the Tail Ends of the Problem in Healthcare and Medical Devices
Demonstrating process improvement often involves showing improvement in the mean, so we focus on the center of a distribution. Defects don’t fall in the center, though. They're in the tails.
4 Challenges to Improving Stability in Manufacturing, and How You Can Face Them
Parts are to be manufactured to specifications. Unstable behaviours generate quality problems experienced by customers later on. This article touches on why and how to reduce instability with a structured quality and problem-solving approach such as DMAIC applied using the modern toolkit of Minitab.

Besides Traditional Designs, Definitive Screening Designs can help Process & Product Optimization
Definitive Screening Designs (DSDs) are a new class of designs of experiments (DoE) that have generated a lot of interest for process and product optimization. They are available in the latest version of Minitab.
Process Validation Tools For Clinical Approval: An Example For Passing the 3 FDA Stage Goals
The FDA recommends three stages for process validation. Let’s explore the stage goals and the types of activities and statistical techniques typically conducted within each. You can use Minitab Statistical Software to run any of the analyses here. If you don’t yet have Minitab, try it free for 30 days.
Concluding Our Golf DOE: Time to Quantify, Understand and Optimize
Last week on The Minitab Blog, we used Minitab Statistical Software to review analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and blocking variables in our ongoing design of experiment (DOE) on how to get the longest drive in your golf game. Now let’s finish it. We’re ready to review and present our results.
ANCOVA and Blocking: 2 Vital Parts to DOE
Previously in our Minitab designed experiment on driving the golf ball as far as possible from the tee, we tested our four experimental factors and determined how many runs we needed to produce a complete data set. Now let’s analyze the data and interpret the covariates and blocking variables.
