- Patient Safety and Comfort:
- Ensure patient comfort and safety during the ultrasound procedure, explaining each step and providing reassurance.
- Monitor the patient for signs of discomfort or distress and adjust positioning or equipment settings as needed.
- Address patient concerns or discomfort, particularly for patients who may be anxious or nervous about the procedure.
- Ensure a clean and sterile environment, adhering to infection control standards.
- Image Analysis and Reporting:
- Capture high-quality, diagnostic images that meet the criteria for medical evaluation and diagnosis.
- Review and analyze ultrasound images for clarity and completeness before submitting them to the physician or radiologist.
- Provide preliminary findings or impressions based on ultrasound images to the physician, while adhering to professional and legal guidelines.
- Ensure that all images are labeled correctly and stored in the hospital's electronic health record (EHR) system or PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System).
- Post-Procedure Care:
- Assist the patient after the procedure, ensuring they are stable and comfortable before leaving the examination room.
- Remove any gel from the patient's skin and offer tissues or towels for cleaning.
- Provide patients with aftercare instructions, especially if additional follow-up appointments or tests are required.
- Advise patients to follow up with their physician for review of results or further treatment.
- Equipment Maintenance and Troubleshooting:
- Regularly inspect and maintain ultrasound equipment, ensuring it is functioning properly and in good working condition.
- Perform basic troubleshooting for equipment malfunctions, and report technical issues to the appropriate team for repair.
- Ensure the ultrasound probe is properly cleaned and sanitized between patients, following infection control protocols.
- Documentation and Record-Keeping:
- Maintain accurate records of procedures performed, including patient information, images, and reports.
- Ensure all documentation is completed in compliance with hospital policies, regulatory standards, and patient confidentiality guidelines (e.g., HIPAA).
- Ensure that images and results are stored correctly and are readily accessible for review by physicians or radiologists.
- Collaboration with Medical Team:
- Work closely with physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide accurate imaging for diagnosis and treatment.
- Communicate effectively with physicians and other medical staff to discuss the quality of images or any potential findings that may require further investigation.
- Assist in preparing reports or other documentation as needed for medical records or treatment planning.
- Professional Development and Training:
- Participate in continuing education opportunities, staying current with the latest advancements in ultrasound technology and imaging techniques.
- Obtain and maintain certifications and licensure required for ultrasound technology, including RDMS (Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer) certification and Basic Life Support (BLS) certification.
