RE: [Histonet] IHC QC forms:
Linda~ We would love to be completely paperless eventually. We are in the process of interfacing our instruments with PowerPath and this is where we are having a problem developing a code for the repeats. Thanks again for your advice, every little bit helps!

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. Linda A.

RE: [Histonet] IHC QC forms:
Hi Brandy, Our QC program indicates that all slides are QC'd by a tech prior to leaving the lab. Once, QC is done, the tech delineates between the patient tissue and control. This indicates to the lab assistant that they are ready to be distributed. Stain quality is also 'assumed' through the report disclaimer after the case is read out by the pathologist which includes the statement: Ancillary studies were performed on this case with appropriate controls showing appropriate reactivity. Where we do document is when a stain does not work as expected. At the time of tech QC, if the stain did not work, we print the run log, attach the bad slide with comments and perform a repeat following investigation into why it did not work. The repeat results and initials are noted on the log and this is filed in a binder. This saves us a lot of time. If the pathologist has an issue with a stain, they submit a QI issue log to me and I research the issue. Hope this helps.
