1 Preface

This User Guide provides instructions for the configuration and operation of the VENTANA VANTAGE system. It is

intended to serve as reference material for users who have participated in VANTAGE training. This document

provides information for version 2.5.1 of the VANTAGE system.

2 Warnings and Precautions

Safety Information

The following information provides safety precautions and should be read prior to using the VENTANA VANTAGE

system.

WARNING: GOOD ELECTRICAL SAFETY PRACTICE SHOULD BE OBSERVED. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO

STARE INTO THE BEAM FROM THE BARCODE READER.

Declaration of Conformity

All hardware components used for the VANTAGE Workflow Automation System have the labeling of our respective

suppliers. We do not re-brand or re-label the hardware or packaging. Hardware components of the VANTAGE

System are CE marked by the respective manufacturer(s), and appropriate certification and verification

documentation is available from the vendor upon request to demonstrate conformity to relevant electronics

standards.

VANTAGE software, developed by Ventana Medical Systems, Inc., is not considered to be a medical device in the

European Union, and is not CE marked as an IVD. It is CE marked to reflect that it complies with applicable

electrical safety directives.

Laser Devices

Figure 1: Document Reference Caution Label

Laser components used with the VANTAGE system are CE marked by the respective manufacturer(s), and

appropriate certification and verification documentation is available from the legal manufacturer upon request to

demonstrate conformity to relevant standards

The laser classification is marked on one of the labels on the device. Class 1 Laser devices are not considered to

be hazardous when used for their intended purpose.

The following statement is required to comply with US and international regulations:

CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein

may result in hazardous laser light exposure.

Class 2 laser scanners use a low power, visible light diode. As with any very bright light source, such as the

sun, the user should avoid staring directly into the light beam. Momentary exposure to a Class 2 laser is not

known to be harmful.

Regulatory Notices

VANTAGE SYSTEM USER GUIDE 2.5.2 2000600EN Rev T Page 7

3 Regulatory Notices

Compliance with Standards

The VANTAGE system uses electrical components that are purchased from third party vendors and integrated into

the VANTAGE system. The electrical components are compliant with all applicable international standards, and

documentation is available to support any compliance claims upon request.

Regulatory compliance is demonstrated by the following marks:

Complies with the European Union Directives:

2004 / 108 / EC Electromagnetic Compatibility

2006 / 95 / EC Electrical Equipment designed for use within certain

voltage limits.

• Separate collection for electrical and electronic equipment.

Intended Use

The VENTANA VANTAGE system is intended for use in anatomic pathology laboratories. The system was

designed to improve quality, patient safety and efficiency throughout the entire histology process.

Welcome

VANTAGE SYSTEM USER GUIDE 2.5.2 2000600EN Rev T Page 8

4 Welcome

The VENTANA VANTAGE system is a workflow solution that leverages Lean Sigma principles to improve sample

identification, enhance sample tracking, integrate quality reporting, and utilize informatics for greater visibility into

the histology workflow.

About the VANTAGE system

The VENTANA VANTAGE system is a browser-based application that is housed on a standard file server in your

facilities IT department. The VANTAGE system has been tested to be reliable and easily accessible.

The VANTAGE system consists of multiple interfaces – Touch Screen workstations and Web Portal modules – that

provide functions which integrate the overall histology process.

Use of the VANTAGE system facilitates the following:

• Positive patient identification and specimen/block/slide tracking from Accessioning through Archive location

administration.

• Processing samples at Grossing, Tissue Processing, Embedding, Microtomy and Case Assembly workstations.

• Printing human-readable information and bar-coded specimen identifiers onto the front of tissue cassettes

using a variety of different cassette marking devices.

• Printing slide labels with human-readable information, bar-coded staining system and specimen identifiers.

• Creating virtual Specimen Tracking locations – configurable for each facility’s process – to which samples may

be tracked for enhanced chain-of-custody information and overall process visibility.

• Archival management and retrieval of blocks and slides.

• Real-time entry of configurable, paperless QA/QC issues and station-to-station special instructions.

• Real-time informatics displays of quality productivity and process metrics.

• Reporting quality assurance and sample-handling data for regulatory compliance purposes.

VENTANA VANTAGE Slide Labels have been extensively validated to ensure compatibility with VENTANA staining

instruments. The labels that are created through a combination of the VANTAGE Slide Label (PN 05524997001),

the VANTAGE Slide Label Ribbon (PN 05523583001) and the VANTAGE Clear Overlay (PN 05525276001) are

very robust to the histology staining, handling and archival processes. The use of the VANTAGE Clear Overlay is

recommended when running slides on BenchMark instruments. When the Clear Overlay is not used on BenchMark

instruments there is risk of inconsistent staining results. Refer to the relevant assay kit’s instructions for appropriate

controls.

5 VANTAGE Touch Screen Workstation Overview

About the Touch Screen Workstations

There are four VANTAGE Touch Screen Workstations: Grossing, Tissue Processing, Embedding and Microtomy.

Each workstation is configured with an acoustic pulse recognition touch screen monitor, mounting hardware, and a

barcode imager. Additionally, the Microtomy workstation includes a slide label printer.

You can tap the touch screen monitor at any workstation to display:

• Information about the case,

• Information about the object(s) being processed,

• Activities performed at the Grossing, Tissue Processing, Embedding and Microtomy stations in the Anatomic

Pathology lab.

Orders Sent from a Laboratory Information System

When an action is performed in the VANTAGE system, the touchscreen displays the latest data in the custom fields

sent from the Laboratory Information System (LIS) to the VANTAGE system.

The VANTAGE system has the ability to receive patient demographic updates from the LIS. If you are interested in

this feature, please contact your IT/LIS department to request this feature be added to your HL7 interface. For more

information, please contact your Account Executive.

NOTE: The system will notify the user when either the login credentials are incorrect or if the user lacks

privileges to access the Touch Screen station.

If the user enters the incorrect password too many times, the account will become locked and a message

will be displayed. This invalid login behavior, specifically whether the lock is triggered after 3, 5 or 10

attempts, is configured by the VANTAGE system administrator. Only the VANTAGE system administrator

can unlock the user account (see User Accounts Administration on page 160

6 The VANTAGE Touch Screen Workflow

Use the four VANTAGE Touch Screen workstations to track specimens throughout the histology laboratory

workflow. Print (or mark) cassettes with specimen identifiers, and view case, specimen, and cassette information at

any workstation. Each cassette can be assigned special instructions and comments for quality issues. If you need

to identify blocks that require a technician consultation, you can print a label for the block.

Grossing

The VANTAGE Grossing workstation can be configured for Cassette Marking, Cassette Verification, or Both.

Note that to add or delete blocks and slides at Grossing:

• The Enable Case Item Modification At Grossing and Enable Manually Add Cassettes parameters need to

be enabled in the VENTANA Connect Settings page. See VENTANA Connect Settings on page 119.

• The user role must have the Cancel Slide and Cancel Block privileges assigned. See Roles Administration on

page 157.

Cassette Marking

Cassette Marking is used at the Grossing station to print cassettes, view information for specimens, assign special

instructions and tissue pieces to each cassette and create new cassettes and slides that are automatically

synchronized with the LIS. For cassette marking station, you can select a cassette hopper and print the specimen

identifier on each cassette. The figure below shows the screen elements for cassette marking.
