The process of staining&nbsp;has shifted from labor-intensive, manual techniques toward&nbsp;semi-automated instruments with off-line processes such as&nbsp;deparaffinization and antigen retrieval, and now to a new generation of baking-through-staining automated instrumentation systems that enable standardization, improved staining consistency, and expedited turnaround times. While automation has positively influenced IHC slide-staining quality and processes, the batch-run method has been a constraint in achieving Lean workflow efficiencies and improved productivity for the anatomic pathology laboratory.<\/p><p>This case study of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF) IHC&nbsp;work cell analyzes the impact of implementing single piece flow processing approach and comparing single piece flow output to batch processing of IHC slides. Also, this paper examines how third-party workflow consulting enhances the results associated with instrument implementation by also incorporating Lean workflow concepts, such as single piece flow.<\/p><div><div><p><em>The Dark Report<\/em>&nbsp;is happy to offer our readers a chance to download our recently published&nbsp;<strong><em>FREE<\/em>&nbsp;White Paper<\/strong>&nbsp;&ldquo;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.darkdaily.com\/white-papers\/innovation-in-immunohistochemistry-ihc-staining-single-piece-flow-ihc-slide-processing-11712#Form\">Innovation in Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining: Single Piece Flow IHC Slide Processing<\/a><\/strong>&rdquo; at absolutely no charge.
