Introduction  \nThis guide provides introductory information for laboratories that are considering applying for CMAS accreditation. It is based on Version 13 of the CMAS standards (April 2019) . The standards are updated annually so some requirements may change in future versions.  \n2. Overview of the standards  \nThe CMAS standards aim to promote quality in the provision of movement analysis services in laboratories across the UK and Ireland. The standards have seven key areas:  \n• Resources and facilities  \n• Referral management  \n• Data collection  \n• Data & report management  \n• Document control  \n• Audit  \n• Accreditation  \nCMAS accreditation requires movement analysis laboratories to implement their own procedures, processes and records in accordance with the CMAS standards. A statement of purpose form clearly defines the scope of work. Facilities, equipment, staffing, testing and reporting capabilities must be consistent with those aims.  \nAccredited laboratories are subject to external audits conducted by representatives from other laboratories to check for compliance. Issues identified during audits are raised as non-conformances with agreed action plans for resolution. CMAS does not expect laboratories to be perfect but they must demonstrate non-conformances are being addressed with continual improvement.  \nThe standards are freely available on request from CMAS at [standards@cmasuki.org](standards@cmasuki.org).  \n3. Minimum requirements  \nThe minimum requirements to comply with the CMAS standards are:  \n• A statement of purpose form  \n• Logs containing details of  \no Staff members and internal auditors  \no Equipment  \n• For each test performed:  \no Data collection, data processing and reporting protocols  \no Data collection and processing recording methods (i.e. forms)  \no Staff repeatability records if the test requires clinical or technical judgement  \no Normative data if appropriate  \n• Patient records (providing evidence of completed recording methods and reports)  \no In order for external audits to be completed in full, it is required that the lab have assessed at least 6 patients before the 1st external audit (Note: up to  \n6 randomly selected sets of patients records can be required during one audit and must be in place before an audit can be conducted) .  \n• Calibration or inspection records for key equipment  \n• Internal and external audit records  \n• A master list of all protocols and forms  \nAccreditation requires successful completion of two external audits. To re-iterate, success does not mean a perfect pass with no non-conformances, rather that non-conformances are being appropriately resolved.  \n4.
