Does anyone have any cleaning SOPs for theatre, consult room etc - the ones I have so far don&#39;t seem to have much detail?

When you take an external blood sample also take an internal one and then cross reference the results and see if they are the same. The RCVS inspector seems happy with us doing this once a month. Obviously you would have to tell him what yiou would do if the values where hugely different and since we have an idexx machine we would just inform idexx and they fix the problem. </p> <p>Hope this helps. I also have a SOPs for theatre and consult rooms if you would like me to send you them <img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Happy_smiley.png" alt="Smile" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/129786?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 17 Apr 2012 23:05:12 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:ff2bbbef-0dd9-44b6-9b73-f9bce27660c5emma sime<p>Hi when I was last in practice we had a contract with idexx for the eqa of our vettest machine.
