ALL FIRMS ARE INSTRUCTED NOT TO CALL THE INDIVIDUAL VA MEDICAL CENTERS REQUESTING MORE INFORMATION. Statement of Work SONOSITE SII (ULTRASOUND) Phoenix Veterans Administration Health Care Services 650 E. Indian School Road Phoenix, AZ 85012 Background: The IV Therapy Department is requesting two pieces of ultrasound equipment. The team is currently borrowing ultrasound machines from Interventional Radiology and the Emergency Department. Each RN would like their own piece of equipment to perform procedures on patients simultaneously which will increase patient thru out. The IV Therapy RNs require ultrasound machines with superior image quality to avoid nerves, muscle tissue, lymph nodes and tendons during the placement of peripheral IV (PIV) lines, midlines and peripheral inserted central catheter (PICC) lines as well as other potential vascular access procedures. The SonoSite II ultrasound technology has increased penetration (6cm) and contrast resolution, which is needed to prevent complications that can result in nerve injury for patients and is offered at a better price. It also has a color Doppler feature, which at times is needed to differentiate between arteries and veins. The superior image quality is indispensable and allows the user to more readily see, assess, and cannulate the vein. Arterial vessels need to be clearly delineated to avoid laceration, puncture or injury. The Sonosite II is very different from the vein finder for accessing vasculature and is superior for the invasive procedures because of its horizontal view and increased depth capabilities to access the Cephalic, Basilic, Brachial veins and to visualize nerve bundles. The SonoSite II carries a five-year warranty. Ultrasound requirements: magnification and depth down to 6cm, large screen, auto gain, calipers (to measure diameter), touchscreen, battery and AC capabilities, contrast adjustment, light weight transducer, color Doppler, and superior image quality. Currently, the IV Therapy Department places lines to facilitate blood draws and intravenous medications in all areas of the hospital such as ED, MICU, SICU, 4D, 4C, 3B, 2C, CLC, and outpatient clinics. When a patient requires a scan with contrast, or in a procedural area such as GI, IR, Nuc Med, PET/CT or Surgery, and they cannot start the PIV, the staff will call on the IV Team to place a line. The ultrasound guided vascular access device allows the procedure to be completed, rather than cancelled or delayed, which increases patient satisfaction. It is ideal to have a clear imagery on the ultrasound, be able to competently perform a venous assessment and do the procedure under ultrasound guidance. Peripheral IV is the most frequently performed invasive procedure in the hospital. Patients going home on IV antibiotics may incur longer hospital stays awaiting placement of PICC lines by radiology if the IV Therapy team does not have a functioning ultrasound available. The patient information can be entered in to the system as a source of identifying for the printed image so if needs to add to the patients medical record but, also the information can be deleted manually. Periodic upgrades are provided by the vendor. Upgrades provided on portable media and contain monolithic images of the entire system. There is no requirement for this system to be connected to any network in the facilities. This equipment does not hold or store patient information. In accordance with Appendix A, Handbook 6500.6 Checklist block 7, the C&A requirements do not apply to this requirement, and Security Accreditation Package is not required, In accordance with Appendix A, Handbook 6500.6 Checked block 7, Due to the non-technical nature of this requirement there is no information to be protected.
