How many business days before a procedure should a loaner be received?

  1. 1

  2. 2

  3. 3

  4. 4

The correct answer is: 3

Receiving a loaner device three business days prior to a procedure is crucial for several reasons. This timeline allows for adequate preparation and ensures that any necessary validation, inspection, or reprocessing can be completed without haste. The three-day window provides staff the opportunity to check the loaner against the procedural requirements, ensuring it is sterile and in working condition, while also allowing time for any unforeseen issues to be addressed. In contrast, a shorter timeframe could lead to oversight, potentially compromising patient safety. If a loaner were to arrive the day before a procedure, staff would lack the necessary time to perform thorough checks and preparations. Thus, receiving the loaner three days in advance helps safeguard both the procedural workflow and the patients receiving care.
