Familiarise yourself with the equipment you are responsible for assisting with during examinations (especially the tube/table if you haven't been trained in fluoro). You will learn as you go, but have a basic understanding of the different machines you will encounter and for what purposes. Be sure to check out the troubleshoot section when things get out of rhythm!
For Siemens, check your email for the Siemens PEP Connect link or make an account and complete these 3 modules:
Check the bottom of the Artis Assist screen for any errors to do with the table/tube. If at anytime you are unsure, ask the supervisor for help! (Call 12243 or ask someone to help you find them)
Make sure to end case on the screen once completed (will reset volume used/injected to start fresh for new pt and also make it easier to remove the syringe when cleaning).
Injector set up:*REMINDER* It's okay to ask for help :) Asking stupid questions is easier than making stupid mistakes. And when you do make a mistake, be kind to yourself and learn from it.
