A robust, sustainable audit programme for diagnostic ultrasound is hard to implement and establish. It requires time and resources to develop and to be relevant to clinical practice. There is a need for all ultrasound practitioners to undertake continuing professional development that underpins their roles and responsibilities within the workplace. A project group was established to evaluate how sonographers undertake Continuing Professional Development, with a view to understanding if implementing a performance-related audit process could support Continuing Professional Development. The group reviewed their clinical practice with an aim of developing a clinical governance and audit programme that could support both the needs of the service and sonographers alike. Our project has demonstrated that the implementation of this audit and case review process has positively contributed to our service and provided a more transparent and tangible account of sonographer performance.
建立一个健全、可持续的诊断超声审计项目并非易事。制定该项目并使其与临床实践相关联需要时间和资源。所有超声从业者都需要进行持续专业发展，以巩固他们在工作场所的角色和职责。为此成立了一个项目组，旨在评估超声检查医师如何进行持续专业发展，以便了解实施与绩效相关的审计流程是否有助于持续专业发展。该小组审视了他们的临床实践，目的是制定一个临床治理和审计项目，既能满足服务需求，又能兼顾超声检查医师的需求。我们的项目表明，实施这一审计和病例审查流程对我们的服务有积极贡献，并且能更透明、切实地说明超声检查医师的表现。
