November 2014

Big gain theory—data warehousing pays off

November 2014—It’s been said that “data” is the plural of “anecdote,” and debate has swirled around whether that is true. Something about data makes most of us feel that it is qualitatively different: more manipulable, more reliable, more helpful in drawing useful conclusions. But is there a new stage that might be considered the plural of data? These days, the health care industry is excited about a concept that promises to catapult the value of laboratory information into a new era. It’s the Enterprise Data Warehouse.

How LIS tweaks can enhance efficiency, patient safety

November 2014—So, you have a great idea that will improve laboratory workflow and reduce errors? Chances are the change will depend on automation of some sort, and will involve the LIS. But upgrades to laboratory information systems may not come fast enough, and the middleware may not be available to accomplish what you need. Then the question becomes how to customize the LIS to achieve your aims.

Molecular techniques in a case of concurrent BCR-ABL1–positive CML and CMML

November 2014—CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. Here, this month, is case No. 6. (See the February, August, and September 2013 and the May and June 2014 issues for the first five.) AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and more. Case report No. 6 comes from UT-MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

From the President’s Desk: How we tell our story, 11/14

November 2014—We do what we do because we know it’s important, we find it engaging, and we like to keep things interesting. We are committed to our work and precise by nature. So we spend hours with one patient’s specimens. We build systems-based safety nets to protect quality. We investigate, verify, document. We juggle a bit of everything and work with everyone. No wonder no one knows what we do.

Q & A column, 11/14

November 2014—When performing a platelet count from a blood sample collected in a sodium citrate tube, the result is multiplied by 1.1 to correct for the volumetric difference in anticoagulant compared to EDTA. Which other CBC parameters, if any, should be similarly corrected?
