Section 10-2 Why do Periodic Maintenance

10-2-1

Keeping Records

It is good business practice that ultrasound facilities maintain records of periodic and corrective
maintenance. The Ultrasound Periodic Maintenance Inspection Certificate provides the customer
with documentation that the ultrasound scanner is maintained on a periodic basis.
A copy of the Ultrasound Periodic Maintenance Inspection Certificate should be kept in the same
room or near the scanner.
10-2-2

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 scanner.
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.

Section 10-3 Periodic Maintenance Schedule

10-3-1

How often should PMs be performed?

The Periodic Maintenance Schedule specifies how often your LOGIQ™ 100 PRO should be
serviced and what items need attention. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure the LOGIQ™
100 PRO periodic maintenance is performed as scheduled in order to retain its high level of safety,
dependability and performance.
Your GE Service Representative knows your LOGIQ™ 100 PRO best and can provide competent,
efficient service. Please contact us for further information and to schedule GE Medical Systems
Ultrasound to perform this service for you.
The services and intervals shown in the maintenance schedule assumes that you use your
LOGIQ™ 100 PRO for an average patient load (10-12 per day).
If conditions exist which exceed typical usage and patient load, then it is recommended to increase
the periodic maintenance frequencies.
