[Histonet] additional barcode on ventana-labels

[Gudrun Lang via Histonet]

Hi!

Did anyone manage to bring Ventana to open their label-design? We need an
additional 2D-Barcode with the slide-data on the label.

 

Regards

Gudrun Lang

[Histonet] consult requests

[Noelle Linke via Histonet]

Hi all,

Question for anyone who may handle admin staff:   If a patient or an outside 
hospital/doctor requests a consult and you need to fedex slides/reports to 
another institution do you charge the patient to send these items or does your 
facility eat those charges?

Thank you,
Noëlle

[Histonet] Cryojane troubleshooting

[Jamie McGinness via Histonet]

I am using the cryojane and some of my tissue stays on the adhesive window when 
peeling it off the slide. I have tried 4x slides and activating the UV light 
longer. 

Wondering if I am removing the tape window the wrong way or does the cryostat 
temp need to be in a certain range for this to work.

Any other thoughts appreciated.

Re: [Histonet] Consult Requests

[Terri Braud via Histonet]

If a patient or an outside hospital/doctor requests a consult, we encourage 
patients to pick up their slides at the same time as they pick up radiology 
discs, medical records, etc.  If  we need to fedex slides/reports to another 
institution we ask the receiving facility for their Fed-Ex number.  If they 
don't have one, then we eat the charge in favor of the patient getting the care 
they need.  However, if we receive a request for a research project, or for 
duplication for legal reasons, then we charge a duplication fee for the cost of 
materials.

[Histonet] Help on Competency Assessments

[Fawn Bomar via Histonet]

Hey everyone,



I know that this question has been asked before and I have tried to find out 
information through the internet, but I am having a difficult time trying to 
find any type of sample forms.  Would anyone be willing to share their 
competency assessment forms/checklists?  I am trying to make one up for our lab 
and different areas and need some guidance to ensure that I cover everything 
that needs to be assessed.  I know that I need to have the collection and 
transporting of specimens from the OR/Endo areas, receiving/accessioning and 
labeling specimens/blocks/slides.  Preparing/sectioning/staining Frozens.  
Embedding/sectioning/staining routine stains/special stains/IHC stains.  
Documenting/performing of equipment maintenance/function 
checks/decons/temperature checks.  Preparing and labeling cytology specimens 
received in lab/ prepared FNA slides/specimens from FNA's/ Prepared 
slides/specimens from CT guided procedures.



I am having a hard time trying to figure out exactly how to document and which 
of the six (if not all) competency elements are needed to be checked for each 
of the areas.



If anyone is willing to share their templates (and how they actually document, 
i.e., initial, checkmark)  or perhaps point me to a website, book, or person to 
reference, I would be very grateful!!!



Thank you,



Fawn Bomar
