No CAP regulation about this, it however is a good practice unless you only process one type of specimen.  Then you should implement a second identifier, such as putting patient initials on the cassettes as well....All of this really helps when you encounter a problem.  Thank you.

Subject: [Histonet] Logging in same type specimens consecutively

Does anyone know of a regulation by CAP that states that same type specimens should not be logged in consecutively?  Thanks
