Returning probes and repair parts
NOTE:
The US Department of Transportation (DOT) has ruled that
“items that were saturated and/or dripping with human blood
that are now caked with dried blood; or which were used or
intended for use in patient care” are “regulated medical waste”
for transportation purposes and must be transported as a
hazardous material.
NOTE:
The USER/SERVICE staff should dispose of all the waste
properly, per federal, state, and local waste disposal regulations.
Equipment being returned must be clean and free of blood and other infectious
substances. GE policy states that body fluids must be properly removed from any part
or equipment prior to shipment. GE employees, as well as customers, are responsible
for ensuring that parts/equipment have been properly decontaminated prior to
shipment. Under no circumstance should a part or equipment with visible body fluids
be taken or shipped from a clinic or site (for example, body coils or an ultrasound
probe).
The purpose of the regulation is to protect employees in the transportation industry, as
well as the people who will receive or open this package.
The Vivid E80/E90/E95 is not meant to be used for long-term storage of patient data
or images. The user is responsible for the data on the Vivid E80/E90/E95 and a
regular backup is highly recommended.
If the Vivid E80/E90/E95 is sent for repair, please ensure that any patient information
is backed up and erased from the Vivid E80/E90/E95 before shipping. It is always
possible during system failure and repair to lose patient data. GE is not responsible for
the loss of this data.
If PHI (Patient Healthcare Information) data needs to be sent to GE employees for
service purposes, GE will ascertain agreement from the customer. Patient information
shall only be transferred by approved service processes, tools and devices restricting
access, protecting or encrypting data where required, and providing traceability in the
form of paper or electronic documents at each stage of the procedure while
maintaining compliance with cross-border restrictions of patient information transfers.
