April 2018—Data-extraction system demonstrates potential for pathology laboratories: Just as parents instill in their children a desire to improve themselves, in part through interactions with others, some software developers are “teaching” their tools to interact and adjust accordingly.
March 2018—Among the many never-ending chores that humans undertake—paying bills, filing taxes, flossing—writing medical guidelines can seem like an especially perpetual task. Just ask the architects of an updated document on molecular testing for lung cancer, issued by the CAP, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, and the Association for Molecular Pathology.
March 2018—In a severe flu season that started early, laboratories faced unprecedented test volumes, used new testing platforms, and negotiated vendor supply shortages. When laboratory staff at Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock began seeing a rising number of requests for respiratory tests, and five positive flu results,
March 2018—When the CMS’ new 14-day rule took effect Jan. 1, conditions for laboratories doing outpatient reference testing might have changed for the better. But for labs navigating the new billing regulations, some forecasters are predicting confused seas ahead. “We’ve been reaching out to a number of our customers who I know will be affected by this and saying ‘What’s your take?’ and together just putting our heads around what it really means. But there is still quite a bit of confusion out there,” says Kurt Matthes, vice president, reengineering and service, at revenue cycle management software provider Telcor.
March 2018—The central idea of the film Minority Report—that a “precrime” police unit can predict and prevent crimes—still mostly inhabits the realm of science fiction. Luckily, in medicine, researchers studying “predisease” can make headway on prevention by analyzing the laboratory test results from samples collected years earlier, when patients showed no clinical symptoms, that might have been able to predict disorders such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) in those patients.
March 2018—When Stephen Brecher, PhD, compares MRSA to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, the figures of speech come fast and furious. “We are not in Kansas anymore,” he said. “The bar has been raised. I consider MRSA a picnic compared to CP-CRE [carbapenemase-producing CRE].”
March 2018—When it comes to diagnostic tests, everyone wants the same thing Lars Westblade, PhD, wants: A unicorn.
“The diagnostic performance of a test is reflected in its sensitivity and specificity,” Dr. Westblade said. “It has to be a very good test. And then we need to think about the speed of the test.” There’s also the cost. When all these factors come together just so, “we get what’s called diagnostic perfection,” he says, or the rare event that Brandi Limbago, PhD, of the CDC calls “a diagnostic unicorn.”
March 2018—New from CAP Press this month is the Atlas of Fundamental Infectious Diseases Histopathology: A Guide for Daily Practice, edited by Bobbi S. Pritt, MD, MSc, DTM&H. It covers bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections and contains more than 800 images.
March 2018—From phenotype to genotype in the understanding and diagnosis of cardiovascular disease—that was the medical journey on which Joseph Maleszewski, MD, and Birgit Funke, PhD, took attendees at a symposium at the November 2017 meeting of the Association for Molecular Pathology.
March 2018—Web platform vs. genetic counselor for releasing carrier results from exome sequencing: Genomics can be used to generate a large amount of data that may have important implications for clinical care and selection of therapeutics. However, a bottleneck exists in clinical genomics due to the large volume of results and the lack of availability of knowledgeable professionals to return them to patients in person.
