Simplify protocol management across your devices
Standardizing and maintaining protocols across a health system has traditionally been an ad hoc process. Protocols have been uploaded manually on each device with a USB drive, impacting uptime, staff productivity and compliance. Imaging Protocol Manager helps simplify this process across your GE devices, enterprise wide to drive consistency across your landscape, to remain compliant with regulations and to contribute to the economic success of your health system.

Improved protocol management to help ensure high-quality, efficient imaging

IPM helps providers effortlessly deliver the right exam for each patient. By keeping standardized protocols and revisions in one location, IPM also helps simplify the processes of meeting regulatory and accreditation requirements

With this easy-to-use application, healthcare providers can improve consistency across their enterprises by allowing their protocol teams to develop, edit, optimize, manage, download, and standardize protocols for their devices.

Challenges in imaging protocol management

Landscape
A manual protocol management process can increase the risk of inconsistent exams and the variability of image quality and patient dose.

Regulations
Accreditation is dependent on following state and federal guidelines for protocol reviews, updates and management. However, the process is often arduous to execute, track and report.

Economics
Large health systems can have CT and MR protocols in the hundreds or thousands, requiring regular reviews and updates. Protocol management across multiple site can be inefficient; on-site protocol management is inefficient, time-consuming and costly.

How it works

Create a standard library of protocols for your CTs and MRs by importing protocols from one or more of your scanners
View and modify the protocols as needed, including adding clinical instructions
Standardize protocols across your organization by pushing from the cloud to all compatible devices
Monitor deviations across your enterprise and re-download standards as needed
