January 2014

The perils of overlooking lesser-known STIs

January 2014—When it comes to sexually transmitted infections, most clinicians and laboratories are well versed in diagnosing those caused by chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV, and syphilis. But a host of lesser-known STIs often go undiagnosed, despite their surprising prevalence. Many of these STIs receive little publicity because they’re not considered reportable by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists—a requirement that depends on a variety of factors, including whether an intervention is available and a public health response is indicated, and whether the disease or condition represents a threat to public health.

Labs weighing pros, cons of micro TLA

January 2014—Sleek specimen processing instruments, often with sophisticated robotics, are features of many larger microbiology laboratories, despite the longstanding belief that microbiology is too complex to automate. But total laboratory automation (TLA) has not yet gained a foothold in the U.S., even though there are several installations in microbiology laboratories in Europe. Could 2014 be the year that total microbiology laboratory automation comes into its own?

Cytopathology and More | Evidence emerging for HPV-negative cervical cancer

January 2014—Some studies indicate that nearly all cervical cancers are high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV)-related. Recent studies suggested hrHPV testing had a very high sensitivity; therefore, the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology recommended Pap cytology and hrHPV co-testing as the preferred screening method in women 30 or older.

From the President’s Desk: In policy matters, no pause in the cause, 1/14

January 2014—The landscape for physician payment is changing and all of medicine is feeling a persistent downward pressure on reimbursement, so this month’s column is a reality check and a call to arms. The reality check piece is that we’re not just talking about the shift from volume to value, the growing influence of coordinated care, or a new approach to Medicare physician payment updates.

Q & A Column , 1/14

January 2014—I read a question and answer in the April 2001 CAP TODAY about platelet clumping on EDTA and whether vortexing is an acceptable procedure. A common solution suggested was to redraw the specimen into sodium citrate or acid citrate dextrose (ACD). How do you calculate the correction factor for blood drawn in an ACD tube? Our lab has an old procedure for ACD correction, and it is to divide the RBC of the EDTA tube by the RBC count of the ACD tube. I don’t have any reference for this and would appreciate information.

Newsbytes, 1/14

January 2014—Why one pathologist champions social media—In an era when one angry tweet or provocative selfie can crash a career, the potential pitfalls of social media might be more obvious than their professional benefits. But one Arkansas dermatopathologist, an enthusiastic user of Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, urges pathologists to consider the many opportunities social media offer, particularly for networking and education.
