literature that I can reference on the above types of validations?

 

In our lab we will be using a  some or a combination or all of these to
comply with CAP validations standards of equipment, methods, protocols and

Judith,

When you pick up your sections are you getting a lot of water trapped between 
the tissue and the slides. I have had that problem when getting a new lot 
number of slides before and had to change them out. The tissue wasn't actuall 
falling off rather then being pushed off after the water begins to heat up and 
expand forcing the tissue off. In this instance shaking the slide after picking 
up the tissue had no benifit either as this also caused the water to force the 
tissue off the slides.

2014-11-11 Thread Michael Ann Jones
We use the platinum series from Mercedes Medical - they are so
hydrophilic, that if you place your section wrong on the slide, you cannot
float it off and start over. We also take our sections at a backwards
angle from the surface of the water: rather than lift from underneath - we
put the slide in the water bath next to the section face down at a severe
angle, attach the section to the top of the slide (or wherever) and then
pull slide out at angle. This encourages the water to stay in the bath and
not under sections. Does that make sense?

2014-11-11 Thread Rathborne, Toni
As part of reporting all work related injuries, we investigate the cause or 
contributing factor and determine if the injury could have been avoided, and 
how to do so in the future. These types of injuries happen infrequently, so we 
have not done regular in-services. It is a good idea though, and should be 
something to consider.

Subject: [Histonet] CPT Code changes

Have you all seen this news?


To eliminate these discrepancies, CPT(r) 2015 revises parent code 88342, 
imunohistochemistry or immunocytochemistry, per specimen; initial single 
antibody stain procedure, deletes indented code 88343, and adds two new 
indented codes, +88341, each additional single antibody stain procedure, and 
88344, each multiplex antibody stain procedure.

[Histonet] Question - flow cytometry

2014-11-11 Thread Cartun, Richard
Does anyone have a protocol to hold specimens for flow cytometry until the 
pathologist examines a slide to confirm that it is 
lymphoproliferative/lymphoma?  We seem to be doing a lot of flow on 
non-lymphoid specimens these days.  Thanks.

Richard
