Rae,

My lab was set up new in 2012 with negative pressure air flow with 100% make up 
air through the HVAC system. The contractors used current Laboratory 
ventilation protocols as I understand it and it included negative pressure 
throughout the lab.


The purpose is to prevent the fumes from Formalin and other chemical in the lab 
 from seeping out from under the doors and through wall cracks or windows to 
other populated areas exposing others to known carcinogens and fowl smelling 
fumes such as xylene and alcohol.


I still have to work under a hood to protect my self from formalin exposure per 
OSHA protocols.


Hope this helped.

Hi histoland,

I am exploring digital pathology and I am unclear about the current CAP 
requirements and how those may change if the platform is FDA approved for 
primary diagnosis.  Is the wash out period still necessary if it?s not 
considered and LDT?  Does the personnel still have to be qualified as high 
complexity testing personnel to scan the slides?  Any help or other information 
is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Cristi

Has anyone heard of a regulation by the Joint Commission to require grossing be 
done in a negative pressure room?
