Re: [Histonet] cassette labeler

[LEROY H BROWN via Histonet]

HI.  I am using a TBS cassette printer and it is on the blink.   What are
others using these days for cassette printers?

Does anyone have an older one they wish to part with?   The new ones are
very expensive, out of my budget LOL

Thanks

RE: [Histonet] Cassette Labeler

[Harrison, Sandra C.]

We have the Leica Cassette Labeler.  It works just fine.  I have looked
at the Thermo Fisher Cassette Printer, which had a much smaller
footprint than the Leica.  I would be tempted to go with the Thermo if I
have to replace my current labeler.

These are expensive instruments but worth having.  It would be
appropriate for your workload. Plus, these cassette labelers can print a
bar code, in addition to the pt. id and name.  Laboratories can
eliminate numbering errors by utilizing bar code scanners throughout the
entire work flow;  at grossing, processing and microtomy.  Bar coding
can also assist you with implementing LEAN processes.

I work in a small lab and process approx 150 cassettes a day.  We  
currently use a chemical resistant pen 
that works great.  We write the number on top and the patient initials
on 
the side.  We are considering getting a cassette labeler.  Is it  really

worth the expense for 150 blocks a day?  Is it possible to enter

RE: [Histonet] Cassette Labeler

[Feher, Stephen]

Thermo has a relatively low cost labeler for smaller quantities of
cassette printing.  

The cost of the labeler versus the cost and potential for errors (hand
writing) needs to be considered when making this kind of decision.  You
might want to do a study where you actually measure the time it takes to
label one cassette.  Make sure you start the clock from the time the
tech actually prepares to label the cassette until they are finished and
place the cassette down.  Multiply that times the number of cassettes.
Take that answer and multiply it times the tech salary plus benefits and
you get the actual cost of hand labeling the cassettes.

I work in a small lab and process approx 150 cassettes a day.  We
currently use a chemical resistant pen that works great.  We write the
number on top and the patient initials  on the side.  We are considering
getting a cassette labeler.  Is it  really worth the expense for 150
blocks a day?  Is it possible to enter  information on the side of the
cassette?  Can you share some of your  experience with different ones
with me.

Good Morning,
We process about that many blocks per day also, and I would say YES it is worth 
getting a cassette labeler.  Leica/Surgipath has a small semi-automatic 
cassette labeler that we are in the process of buying and we LOVE it.  It will 
print the accession# and the patient's name on the front of the cassette which 
complies with CAP's 2 pt identifiers.  The automated part is you can set it to 
advance to the next acc # or advance the block or specimen numbers.  Tonia 
Crook is our rep and her cell # is 803-237-9969 or call your Leica rep in your 
area.
Happy cutting!!!
