Emergency department tests HIV screening strategy

July 2022—Thanks to more than two years’ experience with SARS-CoV-2, perhaps at no point in U.S. history has the general public been as aware of antigen and PCR testing, and the difference between them, as it is now.

‘A struggle every day’—outpatient center decisions

July 2022—A time of tough choices. A complex dance. This is how Compass Group members on a call with their colleagues, led by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle, describe what it’s like to cover outpatient centers amid severe staff shortages. “We are consuming significant resources to get all our locations staffed,” one member says. Another predicts: “We will not be out of this staffing situation for 10 years.” Here is more of what they and others talked about on June 7 as COVID positivity rates were up and monkeypox was in the news. The Compass Group is an organization of not-for-profit IDN system laboratory leaders who collaborate to identify and share best practices and strategies.

One hospital’s story: Ins and outs of low titer O whole blood use in trauma

July 2022—Myriad questions had to be answered and plans made to put low titer O whole blood in the trauma bay at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Julie Katz Karp, MD, associate professor and director of transfusion medicine, reported why, when, and how it was done and where they stand today, in a process she describes as “a never-ending series of hoops.”

What’s bugging the gut? A team approach

July 2022—Gut pathogens, their histologic features, and a GI pathology and microbiology team approach to diagnosis were the focus of a CAP21 session, “What’s Bugging the Gut?” Maryam Zenali, MD, Alina Iuga, MD, and Christina Wojewoda, MD, presented a series of cases and highlighted the features, the differential diagnoses, and the integrated workups. Three of their cases follow here, with others to be reported in an upcoming issue.

How close to patients? Cost, quality, competition

July 2022—Point-of-care versus centralized testing, and automation, IT, and staffing. It all came together as industry executives and a laboratory director and a former medical director met with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on May 25, as CAP TODAY’s list of chemistry and immunoassay analyzers was going together. “I don’t worry much about the machines or reagents,” thanks to good-quality practices, said André Valcour, PhD, MBA, DABCC, of Labcorp, who noted the real focus is quality of information and information transfer. Susan Fuhrman, MD, formerly of OhioHealth, said, “We should always give our clinicians as much information as we can accurately produce and our reports should be as clear as we can make them.” And of the staffing crisis: “We have a perfect storm,” she said. Here is more of what they and the others had to say.

Lymphocytosis: distinguishing benign from malignant

May 2021—How to distinguish “reactive” and “nonreactive” benign lymphocytosis from malignant lymphocytosis, and between benign and malignant large granular lymphocytosis, is how Kyle Bradley, MD, of Emory University, opened his talk in a CAP20 virtual session last fall.
