How a local startup solved a lab’s slide-management issues
December 2019—When Alex Bushell, the young CEO of a Canadian startup, approached Bernard Schaan, the now-retired laboratory manager at Peterborough Regional Health Centre, in 2017, to ask what problem they might tackle together, Schaan mentioned an issue that had nagged him for years: histology slide filing and retrieval. Tasked with filing between 125,000 and 135,000 slides per year, “I thought the process could be automated and had been asking various sales reps if there’s anything out there—and they said no, there wasn’t,” Schaan says.

September 2019—It’s a simple and nearly airtight communication strategy: Tell someone something verbally and then share the same message with them in writing to make sure they understood you. Following this logic, a group of surgical pathologists at the University of Minnesota Medical Center made an assumption that if their intraoperative consultation results were made available to surgeons in written form during surgery as documentation of verbal communication—either in person or via telephone—the frequency of communication errors would be reduced.

August 2019—From concept to curriculum: PIER going strong five years later: In the five years since its launch, Pathology Informatics Essentials for Residents, or PIER, has continued to serve as a much-needed guide for pathology residents and program directors who otherwise would be navigating the waters of informatics training without a compass.
