Chapter 8 Replacement Procedures 8 - 5
8-2-3 Returning/Shipping Probes and Repair Parts
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.
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.
8-2-4 Manpower - When two persons are needed
These replacement procedures require two persons:
• Casters Replacement
• Z-Mechanism replacement
The rest of the replacement procedures can be carried out by one person.
