[Histonet] RE: FNA preparation
From a CLIA standpoint the medical technologists is qualified to perform this function. The key to success is to ensure that the technologist has ample practice at making the FNA slides, which are different than a peripheral smear. Smearing aspirated material takes practice and it is also important to make notations on the consistency of the aspirated material and how it spreads since that can have a bearing on the FNA diagnosis. That's my two cents from someone who has trained both medtechs and cytotechs to perform the function, Joe W.

I am hoping someone can answer this question for me. Is a General Lab Tech (working as an assistant) permitted to prepare FNA slides at the bedside, as well as stain them using the Wright Stain before the slides being to the Pathologist for interpretation? My thinking on it is that I believe that they should be able to because after all they make CBC slides and stain those. We are having a debate in our department and I would like to know what the correct answer is before I would implement any training for the General tech. Thanks ever so much!! Valerie A.

Re: [Histonet] vacuum sealers
We don't use a vacuum sealer, but we do heat seal Kapak bags with tissue in formalin, and store them for 15 years with no leaks. I've retrieved samples that were 14 years old, and they were as good as the day they went in the bag. I am not sure the vacuum would work without sucking out the formalin. Kapak bags can be ordered through various vendors in a multitude of sizes, and the heat sealers are not too expensive.
