QuipAssist tracks veterinary anesthesia equipment maintenance through annual machine inspection schedules (including vaporizer inspection and leak testing by a qualified biomedical technician or manufacturer service representative), vaporizer calibration programs, scavenging system inspection and maintenance, breathing circuit and bag replacement schedules, and patient monitoring equipment PM (pulse oximetry, capnography, ECG monitors). Pre-use daily leak check programs can be configured as daily checklists completed by anesthesia technicians before the first procedure of each day — documenting the systematic daily safety verification that veterinary anesthesia protocols recommend. All inspection certificates and service reports are stored in each machine’s asset record. Note: Veterinary anesthesia equipment maintenance standards are recommended by the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia (ACVAA) and individual equipment manufacturer specifications — always verify applicable maintenance requirements with your anesthesiologist and equipment service provider.

QuipAssist connects to temperature sensors in vaccine refrigerators — monitoring continuously against the 2–8°C refrigerated storage range recommended by vaccine manufacturers and the AVMA. When temperatures deviate from the configured acceptable range, an immediate alert is sent to designated clinic staff and a work order is created for the refrigeration contractor. The continuous temperature log provides the documentation that CDC Vaccine Storage and Handling best practices recommend — showing that vaccines were maintained within the required temperature range from the moment of receipt through administration. In the event of a temperature excursion, the complete temperature record for the affected period supports the evaluation of whether vaccines were affected and for how long, informing the decision about vaccine viability. Note: Veterinary vaccine storage requirements vary by vaccine type and manufacturer — always verify applicable storage requirements with your vaccine suppliers and follow manufacturer handling instructions.

QuipAssist tracks any veterinary facility asset — including anesthesia machines and vaporizers, patient monitors (pulse oximetry, capnography, ECG, blood pressure), digital radiograph systems, ultrasound equipment, in-house laboratory analyzers (hematology, chemistry, urinalysis, IDEXX point-of-care), dental radiograph systems, endoscopy and laparoscopy equipment, surgical lighting, electrosurgery units, warming systems, fluid therapy pumps, dental operatory equipment, autoclaves and sterilization equipment, pharmacy and medication refrigerators, controlled substance storage cabinets, HVAC and isolation room ventilation, facility building systems, and any other maintained clinical or facility asset. Equipment categories are fully customizable for each practice’s specific configuration.

QuipAssist supports AAHA accreditation preparation by maintaining the equipment maintenance documentation that AAHA standards address — particularly anesthesia equipment maintenance and safety programs, patient monitoring equipment calibration, sterilization and autoclave maintenance records, and facility equipment maintenance programs. AAHA’s Standards for Accreditation address anesthesia and pain management as a core standard area, and equipment maintenance documentation is evidence of the systematic patient safety programs that AAHA evaluates. Note: AAHA accreditation standards evolve with each standard edition and the specific documentation that evaluators examine varies by standard version and practice type — always work with your AAHA consultant and review the current AAHA Standards for Accreditation to confirm that your maintenance documentation addresses all applicable standard areas for your practice’s accreditation scope.
