Why do maintenance
Keeping records
It is good business practice that ultrasound facilities maintain
records of all corrective maintenance and care and maintenance
on Ultrasound systems where it is applicable. The Ultrasound
Equipment Quality Check form provides the customer with
documentation that the Ultrasound system is maintained
regularly.
A copy of the Ultrasound Equipment Quality Check form should
be kept in the same room or near the Ultrasound system.
Quality assurance
In order to gain accreditation from organizations such as the
American College of Radiology (USA), it is the customer’s
responsibility to have a quality assurance program in place for
each Ultrasound system. The program must be directed by a
medical physicists, the supervising radiologist/physician or
appropriate designee.
Routine quality control testing must occur regularly. The same
tests are performed during each period so that changes can be
monitored over time and effective corrective action can be
taken.
Testing results, corrective action and the effects of corrective
action must be documented and maintained on the site.
Your GE service representative can help you with establishing,
performing and maintaining records for a quality assurance
program. Contact GE for coverage and/or price for service.
