Hello Netters,

 

Anyone happen to know what the recommended humidity level range is for
Methylmethacrylate infiltration and embedding is?  How about any
publications that covers this topic?  Thanks

RE: [Histonet] IHC QC forms:

2014-08-21 Thread Burnett, Brandy
Thanks for your input. We are having the same issues with our IHC QA/QC and 
monthly repeat count. 
The pathologists place the IHC orders through PowerPath, so I'm hoping that
we can create a Repeat code in PowerPath to keep track of them. Do you know
how it was set up in your ordering system?

Thanks again,

Brandy Burnett, HTL

We only check and document control slide quality and need for repeat due to 
control failure.

The pathologist reviewing the slides will send a QC form to us if there is a 
problem with case slides. Plus thye can enter a repeat for a poor stain as a 
repeat and we can track the number of repeats in the system. It is actually 
one of our QA monitors and review of repeats is documented in our quarterly QA 
review meeting.

Currently we have a IHC QC form for every case that we run. It lists dr, 
antibody, date, comments, quality results. The HT and pathologist sign off on 
the quality. Is this necessary for every case or can we do a daily log for all 
cases?  This process is a little time consuming. Does anyone have a good 
process in place that they can share?

Thank you.

[Histonet] Job Opening

2014-08-21 Thread Howery, Jeff L
Hi my name is Jeff and I am the Pathology Supervisor here at Kadlec Regional 
Medical Center Richland, WA. I just had a Histologist resign today as she is 
moving to Florida to be closer to her Parents. I am looking for someone to fill 
this position that has Immuno experience and I would prefer someone ASCP/QIHC. 
This posting will not take place on our web site till next week sometime. 
Kadlec is a 270 bed facility with an expansion taking place next year to over 
300 beds. Last year we did almost 13,000 cases and growing every year. Richland 
is Part of the Tri-Cities Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland with the area 
population of about 250,000 both cities and rural area. The Columbia, Snake, 
and Yakima Rivers converge here so there are boating and fishing opportunities. 
We are 2 hours from Spokane and 3 ½ hours from Seattle with snow skiing along 
the Cascade mountain range and in Spokane. Let me know if you have any question.

Regards,
Jeff

Brandy,

We are completely paperless now so we created a code called RPTIHC that had 
no billing charge associated with it.  The pathologist then puts what 
antibody/antibodies need repeating in the instruction box of the repeat code.  
They also indicate the reason for the repeat(s).  It populates nicely to the 
worklist that gets printed; works well for us.
