My battery doesn’t hold a charge, is the Sonosite ultrasound system functioning correctly?

My battery doesn’t hold a charge, is the Sonosite ultrasound system functioning correctly?

To isolate a charging or a battery problem, charge the battery overnight to guarantee a full charge.

  • If it does not charge, the power supply (charger) is most likely at fault.
  • If it doesn’t charge completely, the battery contacts may be at fault. Look inside the battery cavity for any obstruction or bent contacts.
  • If the battery loses its charge very quickly, the battery may be deteriorating and may need to be replaced. 

Using Ultrasound For CLABSI Prevention

In their own words: White Memorial patient-safety advocates trigger hospital-wide change.

"The numbers really do speak for themselves about the effectiveness of the program. We’ve been able to move from having mechanical complications to having none, and we've been able to sustain that over time. We haven’t had a line insertion infection in I can’t remember how long. I’ve learned through this project that you can achieve zero."

White Memorial Medical Center, a member of the Adventist Health System and a 353-bed hospital in downtown Los Angeles, was concerned about its rates of iatrogenic pneumothoraces (IP) and central line-associated blood stream infections (CLABSI) and set out to improve the situation.
