Ultrasound Machine Maintenance

1. Check the Ultrasound Machine Daily

Before starting the examinations of your patients, ensure that all the connections of the ultrasound are plugged in properly. You should look carefully at the integrity of the ultrasound wiring, cables as well as transducers. If you find any cut or frayed areas, replace them with backup supplies immediately.

2. Pay Attention to Your Ultrasound Transducers

Ultrasound transducers are a vital part of a fully functional ultrasound unit. They need to be checked correctly to make sure that doctors can get precise examination results.

Therefore, perform a visual check of the probe and its connection to the ultrasound machine before each use. Inspect if there are any cracks/cuts on the probe lens or on the TEE probe tube. That is important because ultrasound gel or disinfectant can easily seep into the cuts and potentially damage the transducer. Furthermore, look for tears in the cable that could indicate broken wires inside the transducer.

Lastly, follow cleaning protocols, for instance, the sterilization of certain types of probes used for specific procedures. And be aware of the detergents your sonographer is using when cleaning and disinfecting the probes. Be sure that they are compatible with the probe manufacturer’s recommendations to avoid unwanted damages.

Daily and Long-Term Storage of ultrasound transducer

1. Always store transducers in the transducer holders on the side of your system or on a securely mounted wall rack when you are not using them.

2. Ensure the transducer holders are clean before storing transducers

3. When storing transducers, use the cable-management clips, if available, to secure the transducer cable

4. Avoid storing transducers in areas of temperature extremes or in direct sunlight.

5. Store transducers separately from other instruments to avoid inadvertent transducer damage.

6. Before storing transducers, make sure they are thoroughly dry.
