Pathology requisitions are the things that come with pathology specimens. They contain a large amount of information and provide context.
General
- Requisitions are a formal form of communication between healthcare providers and have implications in the quality of care.[1]
- Elements of requisitions, such as the completeness of the clinical history, may be audited as part of a quality program.[2]
Information typically found on requisitions
- Date.
- Patient identifiers.
- Source of specimen.
- Submitting physican.
- Submitting clinic/operating room.
- Clinical history - is considered a necessity and may be a legal requirement.[3][4]
Standardization of requisitions
Standardization of requsitions:
- Facilitates analysis work, both with respect to: (1) quality of care, and (2) pathophysiology of disease.
- Likely facilitates a higher standard of care, based on the significant body of research on checklist use inside and outside of medicine.[5][6]

- PSA ____.
- Clinical T stage/DRE examination: ___.
- 5-Alpha inhibitor use: Yes/No.
- Previous biopsy: Yes/No.
- Prior radiation therapy: Yes/No.
