We have a spread sheet where ALL times are written. We put the time
received in the lab, the time the tech places the specimen in the cryostat,
the time the case is taken to the Pathologist and the time the Pathologist
signs the case out. At the end of the month I look through all of the
sheets

Mission: To provide the highest quality
Some comments on this dismal piece of busy work:
It helps to have a time stamper so the person receiving the specimen
can stamp the time on the requisition.
A work sheet for each frozen section case makes it easier for the
pathologist to record the time the report is telephoned, the frozen
We have a calendar book in the frozen section room. The pathologist places the
patient label on the book on the appropriate date, writes both the start stop
times. I don't count the multiple block ones, but I don't tell them that! ;o)
