Abstract Limited data exist in regard to productivity and staffing in the anatomic pathology laboratory. In 2004, the National Society for Histotechnology (NSH) conducted a pilot study to examine productivity and staffing in the histology laboratory. After review of the data, The College of American Pathologists (CAP)/NSH Histotechnology Committee concluded that a larger survey was required to further address and expand on the pilot study findings. In 2007, a total of 2674 surveys were sent out to North American laboratories. From the responses, comparisons of laboratory demographics and productivity were examined by institution type and workload volume. Productivity was measured as the number of paraffin-embedded tissue blocks processed per full-time equivalent per year. This manuscript presents and discusses the data collected from the CAP/NSH Workload Study. |
