We put in a procedure stating that should we change the schedule we will test a 
variety of tissue (10 different types) and have the pathologist assess the run. 
We have not changed a schedule in years but we seek to comply...

Subject: [Histonet] CAP checklist question

Hi gang..

I am working on a self-inspection CAP checklist and came across the following:

ANP.23120   Tissue Processor

                Tissue processing schedules are validated.   Note: New tissue 
processing schedules must be validated against the standard laboratory 
processing schedule.

  Evidence of compliance:   Written procedure for validation of new tissue 
processing schedules AND
                                         WC records documenting validation

What do you all make of this??  We have not had any new processing schedules 
introduced into our lab in years. So, I really don't know how to proceed on 
this one.
Any insite will be greatly appreciated.
