Monday was an incoming inspection on lab equipment for research and development section. The equipment that was delivered was on the invoice but the purchase order numbers didn't match. Supply had to come and pick the order up and return it to the supply room until they could straighten out the discrepancy. A call came that the Rapido unit was malfunctioning again. It has to be looked at and the same problem occurred at least once.
Radiology is a very busy department and has a tendency to panic at the least sign of trouble.
I found by shutting the machine off for a second it would usually reset the problem and the machine could stay in service and be used. No other solution was feasible unless the machine was taken out of service and a new part was ordered. On Tuesday I had to put a new transformer into a Sigma 6000 infusion pump. It was a three hour job and very close work. The afternoon saw the delivery of equipment for the surgical department.
