We had a two-hour inspection last week, and they zeroed in on weekly spore test logs, BI in every implant load, and whether our wipes truly stay visibly wet for the full 1 minute. If your team has tightened documentation, what are you using for BI controls and how are you recording cycle parameters off the sterilizer printouts?
Staple printouts to load sheets; BI controls with 3M Attest. For ‘1 minute’ we use a 60s timer — better ideas?
You know, optimizing for ALARA is like getting the perfect angle in yoga — it takes practice! I think you’re right about collimation, but don’t forget about the benefits of digital sensors too; they can really cut down on the retakes. Any thoughts on how integrating both might play out in a typical practice?
