Cytopathology and More | FNA cytology: Rapid on-site evaluation—how practice varies

May 2014—Rapid on-site evaluation, or ROSE, is a service that pathologists and cytotechnologists commonly perform to check the cellular content and adequacy of fine-needle aspiration smears and biopsy touch imprints. ROSE can inform the operator of the need to obtain additional samples and, in this cost-conscious age, make it possible to avoid having to repeat the procedure. ROSE allows for preliminary diagnosis so that additional material can be requested for ancillary studies such as flow cytometry, microbiology cultures, or molecular studies.

Put It on the Board, 5/14

May 2014—FDA clears FilmArray GI Panel: BioMérieux affiliate BioFire received Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance for the FilmArray Gastrointestinal Panel. The 22-target panel allows a syndromic approach to the diagnosis of infectious diarrhea, the company says, as it includes bacteria, viruses, and parasites in one test.

Q & A Column, 5/14

May 2014—Checklist requirement HEM.23050 regarding reference intervals includes a note that if absolute cell counts are reported with their reference ranges, then percent cell count reference ranges should not be reported because they can lead to misinterpretation of CBC data. I understand that many laboratories, like ours, have been reporting reference ranges for both absolute and percent cell counts, and I would like to clarify whether this is permissible.

Newsbytes, 5/14

May 2014—How to avoid becoming a ‘legacy system junkyard: The constant churn of information technology applications is creating new security and financial risks that health care organizations—including laboratories—must systematically address, IT experts say.

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

May 2014—Real-time clinical decision support systems for platelet and cryoprecipitate orders: Platelet and cryoprecipitate transfusions are often used to treat patients who are bleeding. However, many clinicians use non-evidence–based approaches to ordering and transfusing these products. Cost and such adverse effects as transfusion-transmitted diseases and transfusion reactions make it desirable to reduce the unnecessary transfusion of these products.

Anatomic Pathology Selected Abstracts, 5/14

May 2014—Impact of operator techniques and specimen-preparation checklist on bone marrow assessment: Successful bone marrow assessment is essential to the diagnosis and staging of hematologic malignancies. The authors conducted a study to determine whether specific operator techniques or use of a specimen-preparation checklist, or both, could impact the quality of bone marrow assessment by reducing the frequency of obtaining nonspicular aspirates, small cores, and nondiagnostic samples.
