March 2022

Reaching for breakthroughs on burnout​

March 2022—Few people want to talk about burnout in health care—at least not publicly. Take, for example, the response of one laboratory professional, who, when asked to be interviewed for this story, waited several days before ultimately declining. Having his institution associated with the topic, he explained, could fan the flames among colleagues. “For sure all of us are feeling weary,” he said in an email (quoted with permission). “And I don’t want this in the face of our team members who are chronically short-staffed while seeing large hiring and retention bonuses going to nurses and others at the bedside. Those payouts are choking off access to capital for replacement equipment and causing every non-nursing position to go through a weekly labor committee review,” with finance leaders evaluating all replacement requests based on funding ability and productivity. “We all have some burnout,” he continued, noting the number of people retiring or trying new careers. The response ticks many boxes on the aspects-of-burnout list.

Close-up on common diagnoses in core biopsies

March 2022—Papillary and fibroepithelial lesions of the breast were the focus of a talk given by Xiaoxian (Bill) Li, MD, PhD, in a CAP21 session on common but challenging diagnoses in breast core biopsies.

Dark days are over, but new and old challenges pile up

March 2022—The omicron surge was waning on Feb. 1 when Compass Group members met by Zoom with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle. Inpatient numbers, test demand, and positivity rates were declining. “We’re on the downslope,” Northwell Health’s Dwayne Breining, MD, reported. But other pressures persist: the shortages of blood and staff.

Next-level testing for allergy, autoimmune disease

March 2022—Recent years have seen new releases in allergy and autoimmune disease testing that move the fields forward. “On average we’re looking at six to 10 years of a patient going through the process of seeing specialist after specialist and finally reaching a diagnosis,” Veena Joy, MSc, PhD.

New illustrated guide to bone marrow based on PT

March 2022—CAP Publications will release this spring volume two of the second edition of the Color Atlas of Hematology—on bone marrow. It continues in the tradition of its predecessor on peripheral blood cells (volume one, 2018): morphologic identification of cells based on proficiency testing. The senior and associate editors have organized the various components of volume two into “an eminently readable, practical, and in many respects entertaining resource for anyone interested in bone marrow morphology, physiology, and pathophysiology,” Donald S. Karcher, MD, of George Washington University, writes in the foreword.

Connectivity and control—pivotal issues at the POC

March 2022—How can we connect these point-of-care devices? How do we standardize and ensure competency? How do we get the results from at-home testing? How can we integrate point-of-care information into the whole of analytics? Just some of the questions those who lead POC testing and make it possible are asking today. They spoke with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on Jan. 25 in a virtual roundtable on POC instruments and system connectivity.

From the President’s Desk

Strengthen your state societies
March 2022—If you’re reading this column, you’re likely a member of the CAP. But are you also a member of your state pathology society? Too many pathologists think that joining the CAP is enough. The truth is, the CAP can have a greater impact—and pathologists can be more effective physician advocates for their patients—when partnering with robust state pathology societies. State societies are essential because so many of the policies and regulations governing our work as pathologists are enacted at the state level. Balance billing rules, scope of practice issues, and insurance regulations are often decided by each state. So many issues about how we are licensed, how we practice, and how we get paid are regulated at the state level.

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

March 2022—Many people infected with SARS-CoV-2 do not develop severe symptoms and, therefore, may not know they are infected. Serological testing may help identify those who are a­symptomatic and, thereby, reduce transmission.
