July 2016—As pronouncements by fictional detectives go, one of the most famous is Sherlock Holmes’ declaration to Dr. Watson: “When you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Unfortunately, Holmes’ advice is no practical rule of thumb for solving the real-world mysteries of patient poisoning or overdose, because the possibilities are often so vast.
June 2016—To the average reader, “out-of-network billing” might seem like a technical concept that should mainly concern hyperaware insurance wonks. Media outlets from NBC News to Time to the Huffington Post have found that phrases like “surprise medical bill,” “angry patients,” and sometimes “sticker shock” in recent stories are much more likely to grab attention.
June 2016—It may not be an exact science, but resetting standards is a long-established means of improving quality of testing, and it can also be a way of adapting to improvements in quality that have already been realized. In the case of the CAP’s recent tightening of proficiency testing criteria for hospital glucose testing, both purposes are at work.
June 2016—Laboratories that use the HIV testing algorithm the CDC recommended in 2014 report shorter turnaround times for those with detectable antibodies. And among state and local public health laboratories that responded to a 2015 survey, more than half report having implemented the algorithm.
June 2016—Consolidation among hospitals and laboratories can sometimes seem like too massive a tide for independent and hospital-based laboratories to effectively resist. What are the advantages that large size provides to a hospital system or national lab in a competitive marketplace? And will there be any space left in which smaller laboratories can survive?
June 2016—Robert Christenson, PhD, a professor of pathology and of medical and research technology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, likens the U.S. mortality rate for myocardial infarction to three or four jumbo jets crashing daily. For heart failure, it’s about half that many deaths, “so maybe one and one-half jumbo jets,” Dr. Christenson said in a session on cardiac biomarkers at the CAP annual meeting last year.
June 2016—The Zika virus testing challenges facing laboratories are many, including the virus’ low and short-term viremia and its resemblance to other flaviviruses, especially dengue and chikungunya. “These viruses present extremely similarly, and it’s very difficult to tell them apart based on clinical characteristics alone,” said Benjamin Pinsky, MD, PhD, who presented the details of diagnostic tests for Zika in an Association for Molecular Pathology webinar in April.
June 2016—The older we get, the faster time seems to pass. That’s why 2008 might not feel like all that long ago—until you consider that Obama had yet to take office, Donald Trump’s television appearances were limited largely to The Apprentice, and there was no “like” button on Facebook.
June 2016—CAP Press has released the second edition of its 2008 book, An Algorithmic Approach to Hemostasis Testing, edited by Kandice Kottke-Marchant, MD, PhD. She is chair of the Robert J. Tomsich Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Institute and section head of hemostasis and thrombosis, Cleveland Clinic Foundation.
June 2016—CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. The following report comes from Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Penn State College of Medicine. If you would like to submit a case report, please send an email to the AMP at amp@amp.org. For more information about the AMP and all previously published case reports, visit www.amp.org.
