[Histonet] IHC QC forms:

[Burnett, Brandy]

Thanks for your input. We are having the same issues with our IHC QA/QC and 
monthly repeat count. 
The pathologists place the IHC orders through PowerPath, so I'm hoping that
we can create a "Repeat" code in PowerPath to keep track of them. Do you know
how it was set up in your ordering system?

Thanks again,

Brandy Burnett, HTL

We only check and document control slide quality and need for repeat due to control failure.

The pathologist reviewing the slides will send a QC form to us if there is a problem with case slides. Plus thye can enter a repeat for a poor stain as a ""repeat" and we can track the number of repeats in the system. It is actually one of our QA monitors and review of repeats is documented in our quarterly QA review meeting.

Currently we have a IHC QC form for every case that we run. It lists dr, antibody, date, comments, quality results. The HT and pathologist sign off on the quality. Is this necessary for every case or can we do a daily log for all cases?  This process is a little time consuming. Does anyone have a good process in place that they can share?

Thank you.
